Why is it so hard?: watching one person's painful journey through ineffective evangelism -- Looking for a simpler solution: feeling the need for a unique approach -- Innies and outies: exploring different personality types, from introvert to extrovert -- Which method is best?: reshaping current methods of evangelism to fit our personalities -- Form vs. function: finding the key to guilt-free evangelism -- The fear factor: figuring out why we're afraid to share and learning how to harness that fear -- The graceful witness: becoming a channel of God's grace to people -- What would Jesus do?: discovering how Christ interacted with people -- What would Satan do?: learning how Satan keeps us from sharing our faith -- Methods that are biblical: developing a truly scriptural approach to evangelism -- Techniques that are personal: customizing an approach that is uniquely yours -- Intentional sharing: restoring our passion for evangelism by being who God made us.
