What if we changed the face of evangelism? In a time when so many
have a negative perception of evangelism, what if a new model was
entirely biblical, loaded with skills, and more effective? Soul
Whisperer shifts the emphasis from "telling" to a "drawing"
paradigm. It develops biblically the pattern of Jesus, who did not
give static presentations but rather customized his words to each
hearer. By learning his ways, our words, too, can have pinpointed
impact Christians will discover how to draw out first, in order to
read their friends and discern the relevant appeal of the gospel.
In this way, the style is far more dynamic. It adapts Understanding
the non-believer's unique starting point will determine a distinct
path. By creating a conversation about spiritual influence and what
is involved in faith formation, this book charts ways for
Christians to go deeper in evangelistic relationships. Most
importantly, Soul Whisperer infuses skills that will shape a more
Christ-likened missional disciple. "Comer covers a wide range of
obstacles to faith-sharing that most of us experience. His
discussions are honest, personally vulnerable, and rich with
illustrations drawn from Scripture, contemporary culture, and
personal encounters. The best commendation I can offer is that
after reading the insights of Soul Whisperer I can say to myself,
'I think I could do that '" --Eddie Gibbs, Professor Emeritus,
Fuller Theological Seminary "I love it This is one impressive piece
of work. Not another book about telling the gospel, this one is
about helping the gospel 'take' in people's hearts. Lots of people
need to read this " --Mike Barnes, Evangelism Pastor, The Grove
Church "Soul Whisperer is about real evangelism. Gary is honest
about the fact that we don't just go and tell the truths about
Jesus, but we come alongside and help influence people as they
discover the truth of Jesus. . . . But make no mistake, this book
is not softening anything; he is once again helping the gospel
regain its punch in our world " --Matt Brown, Senior Pastor,
Sandals Church "Soul Whisperer presents a can-do approach to
evangelism. I love the simplicity and understanding Gary brings to
how Jesus cuts through life issues in order to deal with the soul.
Gary's observations and conclusions regarding the 'bridges of
brokenness' and the intersections we all pass through . . . give
keys for engaging with people who are caught in the dominion of
darkness and need the deliverance only Christ can offer." --Bill
Malick, District Superintendent, The Christian and Missionary
Alliance "Home run Gary Comer has rediscovered and masterly
communicates the missing elements in today's evangelistic
approaches. This book has helped me improve my own friendships with
unbelievers. I am encouraging others in our ministry to read this
indispensable and excellent book to shape and empower them to help
those who are not yet followers of Christ discover the greatness
and wonder of his salvation." --David Mills, Senior Pastor, Faith
Community Church "There are lots of books about faith, about
sharing faith, and about coming to faith. This one is about living
your faith in such a way that people want faith, too. This is one
about helping others find faith as a real part of their lives. . .
. In a postmodern era, we can't be stuck with the old tools of
modernity. Now, thanks to Soul Whisperer, we don't have to be."
