Review "This fascinating book will be read with profit all around the world. . . . It should be on every preachers desk and go abroad with every missionary. It will furnish abundant illustrations for sermons and give biblical and theoretical depth to the greatly needed and currently spreading stress on evangelism and church growth." --Christianity Today "This book should be studied carefully by every Christian who is concerned about our lack of evangelistic power today." --Clergy Journal "Vivid historical imagination and literary verve characterize Greens handling of a multitude of scholarly details. . . A capable and broadly based historical study of a subject that obviously has the greatest degree of relevance for the survival of the church today." --Church History "Its rare to find an author who, like this one, can state his purposes clearly and then accomplish them with equal clarity. . . Evangelism in the Early Church is meaty as well as lively and interesting." --Living Church "Greens book is a good contribution because it is readable, comprehensive but disciplined in scope, and because it makes extensive and representative use of primary sources." --Catholic Biblical Quarterly "A stimulating and insightful book on evangelism." --Restoration Quarterly "Green has provided an excellent treatment of his subject, scholarly and impassioned. . . Scholars will value this book, and those who are not will find it repays the effort invested." --Presbyterian Outlook "Michael Green has made an immense contribution to our knowledge of evangelism. . . It has given me great personal encouragement." --Billy Graham Details ISBN0802882536 Author Michael Green Pages 474 Year 2023 ISBN-13 9780802882530 Format Paperback Subtitle Lessons from the First Christians for the Church Today Audience General Publisher William B Eerdmans Publishing Co Imprint William B Eerdmans Publishing Co Place of Publication Grand Rapids Country of Publication United States Series The Eerdmans Michael Green Collection (Emgc) ISBN-10 0802882536 Publication Date 2023-09-28 US Release Date 2023-09-28 We've got this At The Nile, if you're looking for it, we've got it.
