Synopsis

What If You Could Change the World without Changing Your Daily Routine?

When you've been transformed by God's love, you can't help but want others to experience the same grace and freedom. But how do you share it without scaring them away or offending them? For most Christians, "evangelism" is an intimidating word that suggests handing out tracts to strangers or doing other awkward things.

But what if there was a more organic, more authentic way to share your faith with your friends, neighbors, and coworkers?

Dave and Jon Ferguson have found five simple, straightforward practices that will allow any believer to do just that. And by consistently living them out, you can affect not just individual lives but your entire neighborhood and community—one person at a time.

Goodreads review by Jesse on April 14, 2021

This is what life as an active Christian should look like. Really, what an active friend should look like. If Christians lived like this (Actually Christ-like) they would have a lot less negative stereotypes. And, not to mention, the world would be a better place. It is challenging and encouraging.......more
