Download or read book The Gospel and Its Meaning written by Harry Lee Poe and published by Zondervan. This book was released on 1996 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Gospel speaks to a broad range of concerns--concerns that differ from person to person, group to group, culture to culture. Yet the practice of the twentieth-century church has been to concentrate on one part of the Gospel--repentance and justification--as if it were the whole, and to proclaim that part uniformly, often without meaningful context that would demonstrate the relevance of Christ to the hearer. The Gospel and Its Meaning breaks fresh ground for evangelism. It equips the students of evangelism with theological foundations for reaching diverse groups, from Hindi pantheists to radical environmentalists, without compromising the Gospel's integrity. The Gospel and Its Meaning - Identifies the basic elements of the Gospel - Shows the relationship of these elements to specific doctrines of theology - Identifies theologians and systems that have focused on particular doctrines - Shows which elements of the Gospel deal most clearly with various issues of evangelism - Suggests avenues of ministry that can address each evangelistic issue. By showing how different parts of the Gospel address the concerns of people within and without the Judeo-Christian worldview, The Gospel and Its Meaning helps those in any kind of evangelistic ministry to develop a means for connecting the Gospel directly to the world of the hearer while distinguishing it clearly from philosophies of relativism and pluralism.

Download or read book Gospel Centered Evangelism written by Joseph Schmidt and published by . This book was released on 2017-06-16 with total page 333 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Evangelism. Approaching this task has been a challenge for God's people both individually and corporately since as long as we can remember and longer. We've tried to examine, evaluate, and consider American culture; adapting to reach it, attempting to develop fresh and creative methods to get our message to make sense to the lost. In doing so, we have placed the culture at the front of our consideration. We ask, "What is our culture like?" and then ask, "How do we reach it?" Are we asking the right questions? Is this task as complicated as we've made it? This book is an urgent call for the Church in America to repent, recover, and renew our priorities in evangelism. The inspiration for this book came from the author's experience and his benefit from the ministry of Evangelist Ray Comfort and The Way of The Master. This book endeavors to discuss something more than a method of sharing our faith (while that is included), but to truly examine the motives, presuppositions, and thinking behind how and why we evangelize the way we do. This is our most substantial resource on Amazon. Questions this book will answer:* What is Intentional Evangelism?* What should form our philosophy or theology of Evangelism?* How has contemporary Evangelism attempted to reach the lost and to what degree are our methods and the language we use biblical and effective? * Is the gospel still central in our evangelism?* What does it mean to be effective?* How do we deal with our fears of sharing our faith?* What specific counsel does Scripture give us for how to share our faith and what does it teach by example?* What does Intentional Evangelism look like practically?* Is street preaching a legitimate means of reaching the lost? * How do we answer the objections from the lost?CHANGES IN THE SECOND EDITION: -New Cover Design-Minor spelling and other corrections-Additional footnotes and sources-Additional material within body of text, expanded paragraphs-Formatting and Structure Changes-Appendix reviewing Bill Hybels and Mark Mittleberg's book, Becoming a Contagious Christian-Appendix on Is it Wrong to Have an Agenda With Unbelievers?-Appendix on Does 2 John v.10-11 prohibit us from witnessing to cults?-Appendix on Event-Based Evangelism-Appendix on 7 Reasons to Share Your Faith at Work-Appendix on Open-Air SpringboardsAbout the author:Joseph came to know Christ as Savior in 2004 after growing up in a non-Christian home and being an atheist for seven years. He lived in North Texas most of his life. He attended Moody Bible Institute, graduating in 2010 with a B.A. in Biblical Exposition and is currently studying at The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary in Louisville, KY. He serves as the Pastor of Youth and Family Ministries at Milton Baptist Church in Milton, KY. He has led evangelism teams in North Texas and Chicago for outreach on the streets, in local parks, and on college campuses. He has facilitated, taught, and written evangelism curriculum for youth, college students, and adults. He and his wife also served a two-year term in a domestic incarnational missionary program designed to reach the lost through building community. Joseph simply has a heart to build and stabilize a biblical worldview into the hearts and minds of the church alongside a theology of evangelism that isn't driven by popular culture or sentimentalism, but instead intentionally shares the comprehensive gospel message in a loving yet uncompromising way.*All proceeds go to support my wife and I while we're at seminary.

Download or read book The Invitation written by Richard R. Osmer and published by Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing. This book was released on 2021-10-12 with total page 367 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Moving beyond conversionism Many Christians today are uncomfortable with older, simpler notions about evangelism as conversionism but see as insufficient the more progressive model of evangelism as hospitality. Transcending that dichotomy, Richard Osmer advances a theology of evangelism as a multifaceted act of invitation into Christ-following community. Osmer begins by exploring references to evangelism in the New Testament—both in the Gospels and in the letters of Paul. He then enters into dialogue with Karl Barth to work through ideas of church witness and the relationship of evangelism to salvation. Finally, with lucid explanations and illustrative case studies, he offers guidance for pastors, laity, and students to use as they reimagine how evangelism might best happen in their churches and missional organizations. Osmer’s approach mirrors the conviction, stated in his introduction, that our concept of evangelism must be formed and constantly reformed by keeping the Bible, church doctrine, and practical theology in conversation. Foundational to Osmer’s rendering of evangelism as invitation is the essential truth that it is Christ and the Holy Spirit who calls converts and makes disciples—not Christians. Thus, we can invite our neighbors to the wedding feast while remaining reassured that the table is already set.

Download or read book The Logic of Evangelism written by Michael J. Gehring and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2019-02-14 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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.

Each chapter introduces and assesses a model biblically, theologically, historically, and practically, allowing for easy comparison across the board.

Download or read book Toward a Theology of Evangelism written by Julian Hartt and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2006-08-01 with total page 145 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: God The Father has acted in Jesus Christ to save mankind from the human dilemma. Evangelism is grounded in this fact, says Dr. Hartt, and it is to this one great fact we must turn in preaching and teaching. The church today must lift into sharp focus the essential evangelistic message. Only thus--far above the methods of popular evangelism--can it meet the modern world's competition for men's minds and hearts. In these chapters Dr. Hartt defines and interprets each of the great principles of faith that make up the Christian message. Belief in God, Jesus Christ, the Holy Spirit, the Kingdom, the nature of man, is explored in light of the Great Commission. Toward a Theology of Evangelism is an interpretation of the church's mission as witness to the truth and love of God--a vital book for every thoughtful person who seeks to obey Jesus' impelling command: Go ye therefore, and teach all nations.
