Evangelism is an extraordinary task; it's what God uses to bring people from death to life. But it is difficult. It always has been. We need help--and there is no better person to excite and equip us than C.S. Lewis. Randy Newman came to faith after reading Mere Christianity, and he has been reading Lewis and sharing the gospel ever since. Drawing on Lewis's life and work, and the Bible truths that underpin them, he distils ten key insights which will both prepare and inspire us to share our faith today. Mere Evangelism will show you how to draw those around you into the great story of the gospel, in which every chapter is better than the one before.

In this unique work, David French, Patricia Shaw, and many others cast a distinctly Christian vision of a digital public theology to promote the common good throughout society.
