Description

Sharing the good news is one of the most caring things we can do for other people, so why are we so reluctant to do it? Bernard Palmer encourages us to speak openly about Jesus to the people around us. Making sure we understand the gospel we have been instructed to proclaim, he guides us through the biblical basis and examples, and gives us some practical tips for evangelising.

Is the privilege of telling people about salvation through Jesus Christ confined to the ‘professionals’ – evangelists, pastors and clergy? Mr Palmer thinks otherwise, and, what I have long admired, practices what he preaches when urging us believers to be bolder in sharing the good news with others. I suspect that many will find, as I have, that what he has to say is a word in season.

‘Do you have a faith yourself, or aren’t you sure about these things?’ Moved by the love of Christ and gripped by the challenge of mission, Bernard has been asking questions like this for generations. Balancing a convincing biblical challenge with helpful practical advice, this excellent book encourages every Christian to embrace the essential work of personal evangelism in everyday life. With less than half of UK based evangelical mission agencies seeing a place for evangelism in their work today, this book could not be more timely!

This is a book I want our whole church to read, because it is about the great commission which unites Christians together as the church: sharing the good news of our Lord Jesus Christ. Yet, in the West at least, we seem to struggle with great hesitancy in sharing the gospel personally. Drawing from a lifetime experience of sharing Jesus in his professional work as a surgeon, and in personal encounters everywhere, Bernard Palmer’s wonderfully readable book will help greatly. Read it, and you will find it hard not to be encouraged by the infectiously passionate heart he displays and equipped by the invaluable practical help he offers.

William J. U. Philip, Minister, The Tron Church, Glasgow

In the flyleaf of my Bible I have a quote from Charles Spurgeon, ‘The joy of Jesus is the joy of saving sinners.’ With passion flowing a lifetime of personal evangelism, Bernard Palmer reminds us that the joy of Jesus is to be shared by all His disciples and that being Christlike includes speaking to others of the grace of God. Filled with Scripture and illustrations from history and personal experience, this book is both a challenge and an encouragement to prayerfully seek and seize daily opportunities to speak to others about our Lord Jesus.

Jonathan Prime, Pastoral Ministries Director, Fellowship of Independent Evangelical Churches

Jesus said ‘the harvest is plentiful but the workers are few’. Am I part of the problem or part of the solution? Distilled from a lifetime of study and practice, Dr. Palmer has given us a book full of careful Biblical insight and wise practical advice that directly addresses this critical need. Why and how should you and I become harvest workers, bringing the good news of Jesus to those around us? I strongly commend this important book.
