Too often, evangelical Christians regard evangelism as something that only the gifted elite of the Church can undertake successfully. Unfortunately, many approaches to evangelism only serve to reinforce this attitude. Although many Christians genuinely want to share Christ with others, their efforts at evangelism often leave them feeling frustrated and guilty. As a pastor, author Steve Sjogren loved to do evangelism, but noticed that most members of his congregation didn’t share his enthusiasm-in spite of their desire to share the gospel. So he began experimenting with a simple approach to outreach called “servant evangelism” that allowed any believer-regardless of gifting-to be involved in sharing God’s love with others. This book is a collection of 101 ways that Christians can reach out to those around them. Sjogren describes this book as an “interactive cookbook.” The concepts for outreach outlined in this “read-and-do” book are designed to be read and then done with a few friends, a small group, or an entire church.

You don’t have to be the apostle Paul in order to share your faith. Relatively few of us are gifted in the area of evangelism. In fact, many of us have a rather dismal track record when it comes to sharing our faith. And yet, in spite of our evangelistic shortcomings, we want to share Jesus with others. Is there a way we can be involved in sharing the gospel without preaching like the apostle Paul? You may not be a gifted evangelist, but you do have the gift of servanthood. You can use that gift to reach out to your community with the love of God. For years Steve Sjogren has successfully used a simple approach called “servant evangelism” that allows any believer-regardless of gifting-to be involved in sharing God’s love with others. One of the great things about this approach is that you don’t have to do it alone.
