Here it is, a book that became the textbook on personal evangelism in seminaries and Bible schools all over the world, plus a beautiful addition by Gene Edwards as he sees evangelism over a generation later. The book is a treasure. From an author who rose to fame at age twenty-five, stepped off the stage at thirty, and a decade later rose again to national attention as one who writes and speaks on the deep things of Christ. In 1960 and in Century Twenty-One.
Earl Eugene "Gene" Edwards is an American house church planter, a Christian author, and a former Southern Baptist pastor and evangelist. A graduate of Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary, he was instrumental in pioneering the house church concept in the United States.
Edwards’ books and tapes laid the ground work for the house church movement that began in the United States in the 1970s. Groups and churches that he planted pattern their gatherings around primitive Christian practices such as meeting in homes, writing their own songs, and meeting in an open, participatory style. These groups aim for a distributed ministry model in which no one in the group possesses greater authority than any other so that all will be encouraged to function and speak in the meeting.
Gene is an author of some thirty books.
