Why does sharing the good news with a stranger often feel less frightening than telling those you love most? For the vast majority of Christians, evangelism does not come naturally. We find ourselves sounding like someone we're not or beating ourselves up for not being bold enough, smart enough, or quick enough. Randy Newman understands the complexity and consequences of this all-important task. As a messianic Jew who has led several family members to Christ, he gives insights from the Scriptures, stories of others who have learned some lessons along the way, and specific steps you can take to make progress in engaging with others. Bringing the Gospel Home will help any Christian seeking to guide loved ones into the family of God ER -
