About this title

From the Back Cover:

THERE’S NO BETTER WAY TO WARM YOUR HOME THAN WITH A NEIGHBORHOOD EVANGELISTIC BIBLE STUDY. “We had never seen ourselves as evangelists or missionaries and still don’t,” write Bob and Betty Jacks. “But the relationship we had in knowing Christ was too good not to share it with others.” So they apprehensively opened their home for a weekly Bible study. Surprised by the results, Bob and Betty quickly shed their fears and proceeded to make a significant impact on their community. Here’s the practical guidebook that grew out of the Jacks’ years of experience with evangelistic studies. You’ll learn how to start one in your own home (or office or campus). You’ll find out who to invite. What to study. How to ask good questions. How to answer them. And when to encourage a decision for Christ. Ultimately, you’ll discover that the secret isn’t in your personal skills or power with people. It’s in a simple, heartfelt concern for your nonChristian friends-and the power of God’s word. Now that’s the kind of housewarming your home needs!
