B. To Seek and to Save the Lost

The Evangelism Handbook is the condensed experience of one who has a call from God to "seek and save the lost". This book will appeal to, perhaps even set on fire, those with the same conviction. Filled with personal anecdotes, object lessons and humour, The Evangelism Handbook is designed to be a practical help to the local church and to encourage it to grow both numerically and spiritually. It takes the great commission from Christ very seriously and is meant to challenge every believer to reconsider the role of evangelism within the Church.

Do the work of an Evangelist

"Do the work of an Evangelist" was the theme of the first conference of 4,000 itinerant evangelists from across the world, held at Amsterdam, Holland in June of 1983. Evangelism is the subject of seminars, workshops and consultations sponsored by denominational councils and local congregations, especially in North America, Europe and even in Third World Countries. Too often, the subject matter is the theology of evangelism and the discussions are occupied with definition of the work, "What is Evangelism?"

Not since Canon Bryan Green's excellent work, "The Practice of Evangelism," and Dr. James Kennedy's "Evangelism Explosion" has such a useful book been written as Ron Meacock's "Evangelism Handbook." It is full of illustrations and ideas for reaching outsiders for Christ and the Church.

Our Lord's commission

Our Lord's commission still stands, "Go into the highways and byways and compel them to come in." The contents of this book are the result of 20 years of fruitful ministry in Christian Service on both sides of the Atlantic. It is a valuable tool in the hands of concerned Christians who long to see people of every age group and in every strata of society coming to know the Saviour.
