Evangelism Without Additives will be embraced by the broad range of Christians who want to share the gospel and feel guilty about not doing so. Everyone from laypeople to pastors, church planters to youth leaders and those who lead men's and women's ministries, will find this approach compelling, doable, and easy to teach to others. Groups of all sorts--Sunday school classes, Bible studies, men's groups, women's groups, and youth groups--will find this an innovative and useful resource.

What if ""evangelism"" meant just being yourself?

If the gospel really is good news, why do most Christians avoid evangelism? Why is ""witnessing"" often a negative experience, for both the sender and receiver? Wouldn't it be great if you could communicate the good news without having to become a spiritual salesperson?

What if... .you didn't have to make a speech in order to ""witness""?

.you could use everyday experiences to nudge others closer to Jesus?

.the things you're already doing counted as evangelism?

Evangelism can be as normal as asking great questions and paying attention to the people Jesus misses most. It involves doing things you already do, but with a little more intentionality. Just by being yourself and becoming unusually interested in others, you can discover that people will ask you about Jesus.

This isn't another program or pitch. It's a handbook on how to make real connections with the people formerly known as lost.

Think of it as evangelism for the rest of us.

Reviews for Evangelism Without Additives: What If Sharing your Faith Meant Just Being Yourself?

Praise for<br> a.k.a. Lost <br> <br> Jim Henderson is a voice for normalized evangelism-heretofore an oxymoron. Henderson has given value back to each Christian's ordinary attempts to simply shine the light of Christ in our everyday encounters, encouraging us to act in faithfulness and put the results in God's hands. <br>-Lynne Marian, executive editor of Outreach Magazine <br> I can think of no other book that rings as true with what is really happening in the post-Christian generations. Jim Henderson writes from the vantage point of being among the very people most Christians have distanced themselves from and don't understand. Get several copies of a.k.a. 'Lost' and share them with people in your church. <br>-Dan Kimball, pastor, author of The Emerging Church and Emerging Worship <br> If you have a heart for extending the kingdom of God, this book will both challenge and encourage you to make a difference on planet earth for eternity. And it will take your thinking an
