Review:
An architect of evangelism and outreach, Stafford North is continually building on God's foundation to design a blueprint for an ever-changing culture. This book will teach and guide congregations through a totally biblical model of outreach and evangelism. I highly recommend his material as a tool for practical and effective methods of expanding God s kingdom right in out own backyard. --james Waugh, minister, Hillsboro Church of Christ, Nashville, TN
Evangelizing Your Community provides practical ways to revive our hearts to be passionate once again about those who need Jesus. I appreciate how the book begins by building bridges to the community and then moves from there into building relationships that have eternal significance. Dr. North does well to remind us that ultimately it is God who leads the way in these efforts through His power and blessing as we bathe everything in prayer. I believe this book is a wonderful tool to equip church members, leaders and teachers to win souls for Christ. --Micah Hobbs, Community Outreach Minister, Memorial Road Church of Christ, Edmond, OK
