"What do you think about Jesus?” the ministry leader asks. The student looks at her blankly. “I have no idea what you are talking about.” Times have changed. Believers who want to share their faith with others can no longer assume a basic understanding of the Bible and Christian beliefs. Increasing numbers of people know very little about Jesus or have different understandings of the Christian terms we use. In Gospel Conversations Reimagined, longtime ministry leader Cas Monaco demonstrates another way to share the gospel, one that is conversational, story-based, and meets people where they’re at. Grounded in missional theology and the true story of the world, the book’s narrative approach promotes active reliance on God’s Spirit and calls followers of Jesus to eagerly engage in meaningful gospel conversations.
