AUTHOR Bechtle, Mike
PUBLISHER Baker Books (05/01/2006)
PRODUCT TYPE Paperback (Paperback)

Description
Witnessing to strangers is fine for extroverts. But what about the rest of us?

Learn how to:
- Share your faith more comfortably
- Discover your strengths
- Define your personality type

The most common methods of evangelism are tailor-made for extroverts. But what about those of us who are less outgoing? We may be left with feelings of guilt for not stepping out and saying more, fear of letting others down, and the desire to become someone we're not deep down.

The problem, says Mike Bechtle, is not your personality, but that you've been taught methods of evangelism that push you too far out of your comfort zone.

In Evangelism for the Rest of Us, Bechtle shows you how to share your faith in more comfortable ways by helping you discover and define your unique strengths within your personality type. With fresh, biblical insight, this much-needed resource renews a passion for sharing Christ with others--because sharing the Good News does not have to be so intimidating.

Witnessing to strangers is fine for extroverts. But what about the rest of us?

The thought of evangelizing makes your knees shake. You feel guilty about not sharing your faith more often. You think, If only I were more outgoing! Yet the problem isn't with your personality.

Evangelism for the Rest of Us shows you how to witness in ways that are compatible with who God created you to be. Instead of going so far out of your comfort zone, you can use your unique strengths to influence others in powerful ways. This book's fresh, biblical insight will revive your passion for sharing Christ as you learn to work within your personality style instead of against it.

"Evangelism for the Rest of Us by Mike Bechtle shows how each of us, whatever our personality style, can share our faith in a joy-giving, joy-receiving way. A splendid book."--Ken Blanchard, coauthor of The One-Minute Manager(R) and The Secret

"Bechtle's exploration of evangelism helps people discover the unique position God designed them to play and gives them hope and encouragement to get back in the game."--Dave Dravecky, best-selling author, founder of Outreach of Hope

"This book will take a heavy burden of guilt off your shoulders and replace it with the joyful confidence of, 'OK! I can--and want to--share Jesus!'"--Kathy Collard Miller, speaker, author of Partly Cloudy with Scattered Worries
