Society tells us all sorts of lies: 'I've got my truth, you've got yours'; 'Death is the end'; 'I can't ever change'; 'Jesus isn't relevant.'
By approaching these common-held beliefs, author and evangelist J. Mack Stiles comes alongside listeners to explain the flaw in society's thinking and shows how Jesus responds to these untruths. Each lie is held alongside an encounter that Jesus had in the Gospels and takes the listener directly to Jesus's words and actions.
Aimed at the questioning inquirer, this book will help listeners understand the relevance of Jesus in today's culture.
Short Guide Helps Churches Cultivate a Culture of Evangelism within the Context of Community
Christians often struggle to know where to start when it comes to telling others about God, Jesus, sin, and salvation. In this short book, J. Mack Stiles challenges Christians to view evangelism as something to do together instead of something to do alone, helping churches cultivate a culture of evangelism that goes beyond simply creating new programs or adopting the latest method. Part of the 9Marks Building Healthy Churches series, this book will help Christians joyfully embrace evangelism as a way of life as it equips them to share their faith with those who don't yet know Jesus.

Evangelism is more than a program.
Every few years, churches jump into the latest evangelistic fad. Leaders administrate the new program, and members go on a raid. But picture a church where evangelism is simply part of the culture. Leaders share their faith consistently and openly. Members follow, encouraging one another to make evangelism an ongoing way of life.
Such is the way of evangelism presented by this brief and compelling book. No program here. Instead, it just might give your church a new way to live and share the gospel together.
