Leaders administrate the new program, and members go on a raid. But picture a church where evangelism is simply part of the culture. Leaders share their faith consistently and openly. Members follow, encouraging one another to make evangelism an ongoing way of life. Such is the way of evangelism presented by this brief and compelling book. No program here. Instead, it just might give your church a new way to live and share the gospel together. OCMCCP | Jan 15, 2018 |  ) broreb | Jan 9, 2017 | ) memlhd | Jan 23, 2016 | sin reseñas | añadir una reseña

"LA EVANGELIZACIÓN ES MÁS QUE UN PROGRAMACada cierto tiempo, las iglesias se unen a la última moda evangelística. Los líderes administran el nuevo programa, y los miembros se lanzan al ataque. Pero imagínate una iglesia en la que la evangelización es simplemente parte de la cultura. Los líderes comparten su fe de una manera consistente y abierta. Los miembros les siguen, animándose los unos a los otros para hacer que la evangelización sea una forma de vida continua.Esta clase de evangelización es la que se presenta en este breve y convincente libro. No hay programas. En su lugar, puede que tu iglesia adopte una nueva forma de vivir y compartir el evangelio juntos."El mejor libro acerca de la evangelización sería aquel que fuese directamente al corazón del asunto y fuese escrito por un evangelista. En otras palabras, sería este libro". R. ALBERT MOHLER JR., Presidente y Profesor Joseph Emerson Brown de Teología Cristiana, The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary"Estoy genuinamente emocionado por este libro. Los libros de Stiles acerca de la evangelización son estupendos porque combinan ayuda práctica con madurez teológica. Además, él verdaderamente practica lo que prescribe". KEVIN DEYOUNG, Pastor principal, University Reformed Church, East Lansing, Michigan"Este libro acerca de la evangelización exalta a Cristo y está lleno del evangelio, como ningún otro. Más que darte una metodología personal, te motiva profundamente a proclamar y llevar el fruto de las noticias revolucionarias de Jesús como el cuerpo de la iglesia". RICHARD CHIN, Director Nacional, Australian Fellowship of Evangelical Students" No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |

I appreciated some of the things Stiles pointed out that still trip up so many in the Church: Church services are to revolve around the worship of God and not cater to the desires of unbelievers; there is no evangelism without words; evangelistic efforts aren't measured, biblically, by the number of conversions seen; individuals are responsible for sharing their faith - evangelism should not be relegated to programs for "the church" to carry out; no heart is too hard for the Holy Spirit; salvation is the work of the Holy Spirit alone; we should never assume that the people in our churches are Christians; sharing our faith changes us.
There were a couple things that made this less than a 5-star read for me:
Stiles says at one point, "There is nothing so discouraging as feeling that a church is more interested in manning the nursery than sharing the faith." (p 57)
While the gospel is more important than any particular ministry within or outside of the church, this comment makes it sound like caring for babies and children is unimportant and overlooks the fact that even these young kids can be taught the gospel.
Chapter 5 begins with an anecdote that mentions sex and Stiles' marriage, and this completely took me out of the "flow" of the book. All of the other personal stories in the book were directly related to evangelism, and this one stuck out like a sore thumb.
This was a short book, but I still feel like cutting some of the more tangential bits, maybe 20 pages or so, would have made this a lot better. (
