The problem with evangelism today is that we are t producing disciples. It seems that for every one thousand people with whom we share the gospel, we produce only one disciple. The solution is t ather gimmicky method to soft pedal a watered down message. The answer to effective evangelism begins with the Scriptures. It seems that nearly everyone who followed Jesus in the New Testament went through a pre-discipleship process. The practice of pre-discipleship was more the rm among first century Christians, a forgotten element in many current evangelistic efforts today. This book introduces pre-discipleship to the reader from a biblical, theological, social, historical, and practical perspective; an issue every Christian leader passionate for evangelism must consider.
