Synopsis
Sometimes the best answer is a question. It's the way Jesus often talked with people as He led them into discussions about the issues that mattered most.
Campus Crusade for Christ veteran Randy Newman has been using a questioning style of evangelism for years. In this provocative book, he provides practical insights to help Christians engage others in meaningful spiritual conversations. Asking questions, Newman suggests, doesn't tell unbelievers what to think but instead challenges how we think about people, their questions, and our message.
A perennial best-seller, the second edition includes a chapter in which the author reflects on the success of the book and what that has taught him, as well as a new foreword by Lee Strobel.
"Distilled out of twenty years of personal evangelism, this book reflects both a deep grasp of biblical theology and a penetrating compassion for people--and finds a way forward in wise, probing questions. How very much like the Master Himself "
--D. A. Carson, Trinity Evangelical Divinity School
"Questioning Evangelism, steps outside the boundaries of evangelism as usual and tackles the tougher issues of our modern day."
--Mitch Glaser, Chosen People Ministries
