Download The Best Kept Secret of Christian Mission: Promoting the Gospel with More Than Our Lips AudioBook Free
This publication comes out of years of reflection, failures, plus some successes in the duty of reaching out to others with the gospel. Many Christians think of the duty of objective as an completely verbal activity, when perhaps the best kept top secret of New Testament coaching about mission is that it involves a whole range of activities that explicitly promote Christ to the world and sketch others to him, and just a few of them involve speaking. Without diminishing or downplaying the value of speaking the gospel, John Dickson shows that, on the other side, downplaying the number of activities that promote Christ to the world has its own group of problems. It can make those who are not positive about speaking---of anything, let alone Jesus---feel limited and self-conscious in the duty of reaching out to others. Similarly, it can make those who do have a flair for speaking feel as if they are rewarding Christ's mission simply by talking. But the reality is that the Lord wants our whole life, not simply our lips, in the duty of getting the gospel to the world. Every facet of our lives can be utilized by God to market the news of his power and mercy. In this sensible guide to the biblical fine art of writing your beliefs, John Dickson offers relaxing insight in to the ways that all Christians can and should be engaged in spreading the good news of Jesus. While not all Christians are called and gifted to be evangelists, we are all called to market the gospel through a wide range of activities---prayer, financial partnership, good deeds, godly lives, general public worship, daily conversation, etc.---with and without our lips. As viewers build relationships this publication, grapple with its arguments and listen to the stories of men and women coming to beliefs, they'll be inspired to see the whole of life as significant for getting the gospel to the world, and they will be liberated out of guilt and self-consciousness in evangelism into becoming perfectly natural promoters of Jesus Christ.
