Tell Someone: You Can Share the Good News

by Greg Laurie

Overview

Understand, this book is not written to make you feel bad or condemn you if you have not engaged others with the gospel message. This book is written to encourage and inspire you.

Even though pastor and author Greg Laurie is a “gospel-presenting professional,” in this book he tells stories of his own failure and success. The most important things you will find here are biblical principles that you can apply yourself. Taken from the life and witness of Jesus, and tested over Greg’s forty years of ministry, in both one-on-one experiences and large-scale evangelistic arena and stadium events, these ideas are intended to mobilize every person in the church to “Tell Someone” about Jesus Christ.

Editorial Reviews

P.J. Ochlan narrates Pastor Greg Laurie’s evangelistic work with interest and emotion. Though the audiobook is basically an introduction to the hows and whys of evangelism, Ochlan offers a personal touch by adopting the work as his own. His approach helps the listener understand the urgency of sharing one’s faith with anyone who will listen. The material can be devoured in one sitting or easily split over a few commutes or jogs. Either way, both the content and the audio experience will encourage the listener to be more intentional about sharing the good news that Jesus Christ offers sinners: Forgiveness beckons if they will repent and trust in Him.
