Synopsis

Most people find faith because they know another Christian, see the difference Jesus makes, and hear their story. Yet most of us are reluctant faith sharers. This book inspires every Christian to see themselves as a story bearer. Four distinct stories collide in great evangelism: God's story, our story, the story of our friends and the story of our culture. The book expounds them all, encouraging us to learn and tell well the first two and listen and react well to the others. Phil Knox punctuates his book with engaging accounts of success and failure. Story bearing has the potential to change the world of those around you.

Over the years, I’ve reviewed a good number of books on this blog and it is not unusual for me to say that lots of people should read a particular book. However, more than any other book that I have read and recommended, Story Bearer: How to Share Your Faith With Your Friends deserves an extremely w......more

Goodreads review by Tim on April 29, 2020

Like all great stories, Phil has written a real page-turner, and yet it’s a book that also makes you want to stop and pause. Not only does he point out the value and significance of your own story, but gives great advice about how we can all be ready to share them. This is a book written for this ge......more
