There is an unhealthy phenomenon in the modern day Church. The majority of believers, today, have simply refused to grow up. Instead of living as adult believers, they have remained babyish in their comportment and behaviour. Many christians have idols hidden in their heart. Many may not see them but they are open secrets before God. Many are experts at deceiving themselves. A fresh fire from heaven is needed to effect a change in these situations. Are you interested in departing from a life of the valley for the mountain-top-life? Is it your earnest desire that God should use your life as a battle axe? Are you tired of spiritual epilepsy in your walk with the Lord? Then this simple, profound and heart-searching book is for you

The Practical Art of Spiritual Conversation is about the art of when, if, and how to engage in a spiritual conversation. The whens and the ifs inform the how. Christians can be so concerned with how to share the gospel that they often fail to consider where the person is spiritually and when, or even if, they should share the gospel. To be sure, the Scriptures are clear that followers of Christ must spread the good news. Yet there are times when sharing the gospel would be undeniably inappropriate. How, then, do gospel-centered, evangelistic Christians discern when to share Christ or when to stay silent? What determines when and if someone is even ready to hear the gospel? How does one meaningfully engage a person who has already accepted the gospel? Refined through tens of thousands of spiritual encounters, this book provides a helpful framework for discerning where a person is spiritually and how to encourage each person to take a step toward Christ regardless of where they may presently be in their faith journey. You will be equipped in the practical art of spiritual conversation so that you can meaningfully encourage every person to take a step toward Christ.
