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. Torrey, you will discover the keys to effective evangelism that will enable you to fulfill your calling as an ambassador for Christ. As you learn the principles of witnessing that are clearly presented in these pages, you will find out how to¿
? overcome your fear of evangelism
