Evangelism is an extraordinary task; it’s what God uses to raise people from death to life. But she was always difficult.

C.S. Lewis was used by God to convert countless people, from friends and acquaintances during his lifetime to modern readers of books such as The Chronicles of Narnia and Mere Christianity (the most influence of the 20th century). As Tim Keller observes, “C.S. Lewis was incredibly good at getting Christianity across in a way that was powerful for thoughtful people.” So if we want help with evangelism, we can learn a lot from the clarity and imagination of this hugely influential Christian writer.You may feel unsuited to the task; after all, there is only one C.S. Lewis. But evangelist Randy Newman ably helps us apply the methods Lewis used (storytelling, humor, imagery and more) in our own conversations.

You will be equipped to speak about your faith and engage wisely with unbelievers, regardless of their attitude toward the Christian faith.”This book is not intended to increase the membership of a C.S. Lewis fan club or to elicit praise for him. It is to strengthen our resolve to point the lost to one who can deliver them from a world where it’s ‘always winter but never Christmas.’ My prayer is that this book will help you to say and do things that will make an eternal difference in the lives of many people.” Excerpt from the introduction to Mere Evangelism by :
