Setting Hearts on Fire

Description "Were not our hearts burning within us while he talked with us on the road and opened the Scriptures to us?" (Luke 24:32) Anyone who explains the good news of Jesus Christ to others hopes that this will be the result‚ that hearts will be set on fire by the message, and that repentance and faith will follow. In this book, which is the fruit of his 40 years experience as an evangelist, John Chapman passes on the skills of his craft. He explains how telling people the gospel of Jesus Christ requires us to be servants: servants of the Word itself (to understand it accurately), and servants of the people (to explain it clearly). Whether you are a person who teaches the Bible in a Sunday school class, a small group Bible study, Scripture at school, a teenage fellowship group or through preaching sermons, then this book is for you. In his inimitable way, 'Chappo' shows you, step by step, how to prepare and deliver a talk that clearly communicates the gospel of Jesus Christ. About the author John Chapman (1930-2012)‚ affectionately known as "Chappo"‚ was a well-known evangelist, Bible teacher, and author of the best-selling A Fresh Start and Know and Tell the Gospel. For 25 years, he was the Director of the Anglican Department of Evangelism in Sydney. In his "retirement", he continued to teach at Bible colleges, to speak at conventions around the world, and to find time for the occasional game of tennis and golf. His other publications include A Sinner's Guide to Holiness and Making the Most of the Rest of Your Life.
