Equipping The Evangelist

I see many schools of the Apostles, Prophets and the prophetic and very little of the School of Evangelism. Many who are evangelists have forgotten that they have the same responsibility given to the other offices to train or edify others to do the same work they do. I believe the time has come for each office to go back to the place of making disciples. And He Himself gave some to be apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, and some pastors and teachers, for the equipping of the saints for the work of ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ. --Ephesians 4:11-12 NKJV We have been praying and asking God for revival and I see God bringing revival in the teaching ministry, meaning the spirit of God is stirring us up to teach more as opposed to preaching. With the fresh wind of God blowing, I felt the burden and pull to teach and equip those who are called for the ministry of evangelism by way of this book. I pray that this book will spark a fresh fire for evangelism in the spirit and heart of the one reading it in Jesus mighty name. I pray that you will be fully equipped and receive the desire to equip others to do the work of an evangelist. This workshop book is written to give you some guidelines that will help you to start well. You can also use it to equip your team if you have one. I have underlined some key words or points to help you remember them. When using the book as a workshop tool, the underlined sections will help you to interact with those you are teaching; by asking them to write the keywords down as you give them. Later you can ask them to read to you, repeating the key points and ask you questions. This will help you to stay in the teaching mode instead of preaching. -Apostle Claire Revealed

As many as 96% of Christians are not leading anyone to Jesus. Which means that the vast majority of the wider church is, at best, simply sowing. The kingdom of God, however, requires both sowing and reaping. If we neglect reaping, we will not have a healthy harvest. Jesus at the Door offers a unique tool--an Equipping Card to use with anyone you know, anywhere--and practical, step-by-step instructions, helping readers witness to friends, family, even strangers on the street. This tried-and-tested method is framed around nine points and a picture, and takes about two minutes from introduction to salvation.

Most Christians already know that they should be telling their friends about Jesus. But they have been poorly equipped with methods that are no longer effective in today's post-Christian world. As a result, many people become frustrated, blame themselves, and simply give up. Evangelism in a Skeptical World is a textbook on evangelism that is ideal for the church or the classroom to equip Christians with the principles and skills they need to tell the unbelievable news about Jesus to friends in a skeptical world. Many of the older principles and methods of evangelism in the twentieth century no longer work effectively today. In a post-Christian, post-churched, post-reached world we need new methods to communicate the timeless message of the gospel in culturally relevant ways. Dr. Chan combines the theological and biblical insights of classic evangelistic training with the latest insights from missiology on contextualization, cultural hermeneutics, and storytelling. Every chapter is illustrated with real-world examples drawn from over fifteen years of evangelistic ministry. These are methods that really work - with university students, urban workers, and high school students - getting past the defensive posture that people have toward Christianity so they can seriously consider the claims of Jesus Christ. Field-tested and filled with unique, fresh, and creative insights, this book will equip you to share the gospel in today's world and help as many people as possible hear the good news about Jesus.
