Synopsis Evangelism and the Openness of God by : Vaughn W. Baker
In Evangelism and the Openness of God, Vaughn Baker argues that a dynamic concept of God as articulated in open theism better serves the evangelistic mission of the church than does conventional theology. Open theism affirms an ontology of love as opposed to power, and it focuses on God's kenosis in creation, allowing for the authentic freedom of creation influenced by divine persuasion. God's genuine temporal relationship with creation--one that is open, synergist, and non-coercive--provides a new perspective for evangelistic activity. In this volume the author has made a valuable contribution to the integration of new developments in theology and evangelism.

Synopsis The Logic of Evangelism by : Michael J. Gehring
The publication of William J. Abraham's The Logic of Evangelism in 1989 marked a turning point in the field and practice of evangelism. Almost thirty years later the book still provokes discussion as it stimulates both theorists and practitioners to comprehend evangelism as initiation into God's reign. Combining theological insight and historical analysis, Abraham's groundbreaking work remains the primary text to set the stage for how evangelism may be conceived. In these timely essays written by both theologians and church leaders, The Logic of Evangelism Revisited takes a critical and yet appreciative look into the ways Abraham's work still speaks to the church in today's world. The authors, coming from a wide array of backgrounds, show how The Logic of Evangelism remains a key text into the twenty-first century.

Synopsis Evangelism and the Sovereignty of God by : J. I. Packer
If God is in control of everything, can Christians sit back and not bother to evangelize? Or does active evangelism imply that God is not really sovereign at all? J. I. Packer shows in this classic study how both of these attitudes are false.

Synopsis Evangelism by : G Michael Cocoris
For most Christians, the thought of being involved in evangelism is intimidating. They feel apprehensive, perhaps, because they feel unprepared. On the other hand, when Christians are prepared, they feel confident that they can personally share the good news with others. Evangelism: A Biblical Approach will thoroughly prepare you because it covers every passage on evangelism and all the topics pertaining to evangelism in the New Testament. It begins by delving into the biblical foundations of evangelism--starting from the basic questions of "What is Evangelism?" and "Why Evangelize?" It covers such topics as "Praying People into Heaven," "On Being Wise, Like a Snake," and "What Made Paul So Bold?" It concludes by discussing the practical how-tos, including approaching different people on their level. It enables you to make evangelism personal. This revised edition has an additional chapter on Lordship Salvation. Evangelism: A Biblical Approach will equip you and give you the confidence to explain the gospel.

Synopsis The Sacrament of Evangelism by : Jerry Root
A recent statistic suggests that 15% of the churches in America are growing but only 2.2% are growing evangelistically. Much of the church in America has lost its evangelistic zeal and forgotten how to re-ignite it; this book is an attempt to light the fuse of the powder keg so that the church, long-distracted by so many things, might return to its primary mission in the world. We do not take Christ to anyone; He is already there. We go to make explicit what we see Him doing implicitly. It is not a question of whether God is at work in His world . . . Our hope is to see more of God’s people at work with Him! Learn about why we share our faith, Christ's role in our evangelism, the deep longings in all our hearts, and how to effectively live a sacramentally evangelistic lifestyle. We are offering a way of looking at life and the world that is open to God’s presence everywhere. This approach is called sacramental. And where better to experience God’s presence than in His workplace? This is the Sacrament of Evangelism.

Synopsis Evangelism after Christendom by : Bryan Stone
Most people think of evangelism as something an individual does--one person talking to one or more other people about the gospel. Bryan Stone, however, argues that evangelism is the duty and call of the entire church as a body of witness. Evangelism after Christendom explores what it means to understand and put to work evangelism as a rich practice of the church, grounding evangelism in the stories of Israel, Jesus, and the Apostles. This thorough treatment is marked by an astute sensitivity to the ways in which Christian evangelism has in the past been practiced violently, intentionally or unintentionally. Pointing to exemplars both Protestant and Catholic, Stone shows pastors, professors, and students how evangelism can work nonviolently.
