What Others are Saying

In A Forgotten Gospel, Mark McGrath has taken the truth of the Gospel that “everything hinges on the resurrection of Jesus Christ” and made it simple for today’s contemporary world. Many others died on a cross, but none of them are alive today!
Jesus Christ is the king, and he wants our friends to know Him and let Him lead their lives. McGrath gives a new, fresh and yet scriptural approach to the Gospel that makes it easy to share our faith in Christ with our friends and family and then still have meaningful conversations afterwards.
Presenting his material has started to encourage my students that they too can share Jesus with the people they live with while still calling them close friends.

Over twenty years ago we embraced the radical change Mark describes here in A Forgotten Gospel and it has completely altered both the approach to and the effect of our outreach. Because this approach coaches people to know how to engage in meaningful conversations with unbelievers, and how to keep the door open for future dialogue, the number of meaningful conversations with non-believers has increased, the level of our relationships with them has deepened, and the church is extremely confident when interacting with those outside the family of God. On top of that, the people who are now beginning to follow Jesus are coming with a genuine faith and real commitment! Whether you have a heart for evangelism or a fear of evangelism, this book is a must read.

I like this! And I’ll tell you why.
It’s clear and simple. It’s positive, like the gospel. It’s full of hope. It’s free of religious jargon.
McGrath’s desire to make the resurrection of Jesus the central aspect of our communication of the gospel to those who need it is right on! Sounds a lot like the book of Acts.
I especially appreciate his emphasis on learning to listen to others and showing real concern for them and their thoughts. His insistence on being sensitive to the voice of God is extremely important. His whole approach is well-balanced and he writes from a broad experience. Very encouraging, indeed!
