Description

This is a brief and accessible examination of the ethics of evangelism in a post-Christian culture. Thiessen discusses the immoral practices and attitudes that are sometimes associated with evangelism and then turns his insightful attention to a better way of approaching the subject. Should we try to bring people to Christ or not?

Against such a backdrop this unique book asks what sort of evangelism is ethical in a liberal, post-Christian society.
