Synopsis

Rev. Richard D. Phillips digs into the early chapters of the Gospel of John to discover principles you can use for Christian outreach that were modeled by witnesses for Jesus and by Jesus Himself. Phillips unfolds biblical principles for evangelism by examining the ministry of John the Baptist and the calling of the first of Jesus’ disciples. Then, through a brief study of the Lord’s encounter with the Pharisee Nicodemus, he presents us with a theology of the gospel. Finally, he focuses in on Jesus' stirring encounter with the Samaritan woman to show exactly how Christ shared the good news. Phillips’ clear and concise handling of these key stories will both motivate and instruct you in your witness on behalf of Christ. An appendix looks at the relationship between God’s sovereignty and evangelism.

Phillips preached through the Gospel of John and then wrote a book analyzing the evangelistic strategy of John the Baptist and Jesus in his encounters with Nicodemus and the Samaritan woman. His material is solid, though not spectacular.......more

The need for personal evangelism is great. This book fills that need. I am on an evangelism committee in our local church. I read this along with other articles and a helpful book on sharing Christ. This book gives the "technique" of the Greatest Evangelist, Christ himself. I underlined a great deal......more

Very solid book on information. Could be inspirational for some, but a lot of this is what I would consider "agreed upon" interpretation. This is a good reference book for people already versed in the Book of John.......more
