From the Back Cover

God¿s greatest desire is that people will receive His love and forgiveness through Jesus Christ and become part of His family. That is why our main calling as Christians is to help others come to Christ and receive eternal life. However, even though many Christians earnestly want to tell others this liberating message of the Gospel, they simply don¿t know how to go about doing so. They don¿t know where to begin, and they are concerned about how to answer the questions and objections others might have. In this very practical book by R. A.
