The Master Plan of Evangelism

Author: Robert E. Coleman

Jesus gave His followers a clear mission and mandate: make disciples of all nations, baptizing and teaching them (Mat. 28:19-20). Much of our busyness is actually peripheral to what Jesus commanded His followers to do. Additionally, many of our attempts to carry out Jesus' evangelistic mandate fall short of what Jesus actually called us to do – make disciples. Anyone interested in evangelism, discipleship, missions, or ecclesiology should make time to work through Coleman's powerful book. |
