Spring Reading 2010 — Evangelism
One of the five classes I’m in this semester is Evangelism, emphasizing the personal aspect of sharing one’s faith (in contrast with the emphasis on the evangelistic or missional role of the church community). The following is a list of books both required for the class, and ones I’m adding for supplementary reading (or re-reading). Feel free to suggest others, as well.
Required:
True Evangelism: Winning Souls Through Prayer (Chafer)
The 7 Principles of an Evangelistic Life (Cecil)
Supplementary:
God is the Gospel: Meditations on God’s Love as the Gift of Himself (Piper)
The Heart of Evangelism (Barrs)
Tell the Truth: The Whole Gospel to the Whole Person by Whole People (Metzger)
The Study of Evangelism: Exploring a Missional Practice of the Church (Various Contributors)
Total Church: A Radical Reshaping around Gospel and Community (Chester & Timmis)
Salvation to the Ends of the Earth: A Biblical Theology of Mission (Kostenberger & O’Brien)
