 A Fun Read, and Helpful! November 26, 2008
Bill Hybels is a great communicator, and his way of presenting information is refreshing. We are using this book with a small Home Fellowship group, and the discussions are lively. The real life examples are very real and never seem contrived. Enjoy this book and you will be sharing your faith more readily.

This series begins with an outright attack on traditional evanglism, even biblically-modeled evangelism. There is no doubt that relationships are also key to ministering, as modeled by Christ ministering to the woman at the well. However, this series seems to want to erase all the good that came from great evangelists of past times, including Billy Graham perhaps. This series is more of the "seeker-friendly" movement that is leading many to shallow religion. Beware.

... for J.F. Foster's review, not this book!
Thankfully, I snagged a copy at a thrift store for less than a dollar. I skimmed through and promptly threw it away. There's nothing groundbreaking or revolutionary in this book - live what you believe. People smell a hypocrite a mile away!
I agree 100% with Foster's review, though I couldn't conceive of giving the book four stars simply because there are much better resources available.
My top resource for practical guidance on sharing the gospel is The Way of the Master with Ray Comfort and Kirk Cameron. Nothing watered down here - very direct application of the Gospel in the manner of Jesus Christ and His apostles.
My second recommended resource is Share Jesus Without Fear. Very practical and many more examples than Hybels' book. The author comes across a bit too cocky at times (in his "soul-winning" ability) but, overall, the book is good and offers many great ideas.
"Then one of them, which was a lawyer, asked him a question, tempting him, and saying, Master, which is the great commandment in the law? Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets." Matthew 22:36-40
Great read March 31, 2008
Hybles down to earth plain talk and "relateable life stories" hit at the heart of Biblical evangelism. I read Just Walk Across the Room... (without question the most balanced and motivating book on evangelism I have ever read!)... Becoming a Contagious Christian should have been read first but both books are foundational instructional guidance to the freshly 'born again' as well as the "veteran" who needs a shot of encouragement. I'll be using this material in our church for a long time to come! Pastor Larry Kuhl

Good information for Christian's wishing to make a difference. I would also recommend the video and workbook for small group studies.
