Most Christians know they should be trying to tell their friends and family about Jesus. But in a post-Christendom world, personal evangelism is viewed negatively - it's offensive, inappropriate, and insensitive.

Here, author Sam Chan equips everyday Christians who are reluctant and nervous to tell their friends about Jesus with practical, tested ways of sharing their faith in the least awkward ways possible.

Worse, many pastors worry these messages undermine confidence in the Bible or its authority. But that doesn't have to be the case. Sam Chan and Malcolm Gill answer these objections and chart a path for how preachers can deliver faithful and effective topical messages.
