Overview

Witnessing to strangers is fine for extroverts. But what about the rest of us?

The thought of evangelizing makes your knees shake. You feel guilty about not sharing your faith more often. You think, If only I were more outgoing! Yet the problem isn’t with your personality.

Evangelism for the Rest of Us shows you how to witness in ways that are compatible with who God created you to be. Instead of going so far out of your comfort zone, you can use your unique strengths to influence others in powerful ways. This book’s fresh, biblical insight will revive your passion for sharing Christ as you learn to work within your personality style instead of against it.

Praise for Evangelism for the Rest of Us

Evangelism for the Rest of Us by Mike Bechtle shows how each of us, whatever our personality style, can share our faith in a joy-giving, joy-receiving way. A splendid book.

--Ken Blanchard, co-author, The One-Minute Manager® and The Secret

Many Christians have chosen to sit in the ‘evangelism dugout’ because they don’t feel qualified to be on the field. But they’ve been playing the wrong position. Mike Bechtle’s exploration of evangelism helps people discover the unique position God designed them to play, and gives them hope and encouragement to get back in the game.

--Dave Dravecky, best-selling author and founder of Outreach of Hope

If you struggle with sharing your faith, like I do, then Mike’s book will be significant. His personal stories and practical ideas are wrapped in a biblical perspective with lots of engaging humor. This book will take a heavy burden of guilt off your shoulders and replace it with the joyful confidence of, ‘OK! I can--and want to--share Jesus!’

--Kathy Collard Miller, speaker and author of Partly Cloudy with Scattered Worries
