Are we still successful if our evangelism sees little or no conversions? How do we gauge our evangelism effectiveness, especially if it leads to hatred and societal ostracism? When did evangelism become so mushy and pragmatic, and how do we get back to a biblical approach?
Western Christianity had a significant influence on the culture for several centuries. It is accustomed to “success” in some degree or another. Today it is no longer that way. When it comes to evangelism, what do we do in light of such circumstances? Modern evangelism is rife with gimmicks and the wisdom of man. It wasn't always this way, so what happened and where do we go from here? By looking at the Scriptures and church history, these are the questions answered in this book. Now more than ever we must trust in God’s Word—not only for how to do evangelism, but to know what will happen to those who evangelize.
Ryan Denton has given us an essential handbook on evangelism that is like eating frozen concentrated orange juice straight from the cylinder.

I really, really loved this book. Ryan Denton gives both a sobering assessment of modern evangelical methods as well as a motivating challenge for believers to do evangelism as God has prescribed it to be done.

This excellent book is a strong corrective and encouragement for winning souls in a way that honors God and His truth. I pray that it is read worldwide and motivates each reader to be doing “the work of an evangelist.”

The authority of this book is Scripture. The wealth of Biblical references and exhaustive quotes from evangels of old are alone worth getting this book.

Speaking from years of hands-on experience, Denton especially shows the tragedy of the unbiblical methodologies now regularly practiced in many evangelical ministries. Overall, the reader will be truly blessed by the biblical substance in establishing the proper method of gospelizing the lost as well as Christians.
