My Granddaughter Tara had a wonderful suggestion — “Why not show others how to share their faith in Christ.”
I would need a book to do that, however, Ray Stanford, who led me to Christ, has already written the classic and easy to read Personal Evangelism Handbook. You should download a FREE PDF or MSWord version. It is well worth the few seconds it takes to download.

Here is an excerpt from the Foreword:
FOREWORD
This book places at your fingertips practical, clear, effective methods to reach people for Christ in a loving way. You will be provided the answers to difficult questions concerning cults, sects, religions, agnostics and atheists and how to recognize the truth from false doctrine.
You will have proof that creation is a scientific fact and that the theory of evolution is a farce. It will give you the know-how to give comfort and assurance to believers, that they can be saved for eternity and that God will never let them be lost. This book is dedicated to all who love people and don’t want them to end up in hell.
Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. II Timothy 2:15
Later I will attempt to give a few quick suggestions about my own experiences.
Share your Savior, Jesus Christ — You will be happy you did and so will the person with whom you shared Christ.
Thank you, Tara, for your wonderful idea.
