The Way Of The Master
The Way Of The Master, a training and resource program, offers a unique, Biblical, and effective approach to witnessing. Whether you find yourself talking to a stranger on the street or sharing the Gospel with friends, neighbors, or family, you will benefit.
Not just another ‘four Spiritual laws’ or funky tract company, The Way Of The Master presents down-to-earth Biblical teaching on the ‘hows’ of witnessing, practical video presentations with real-life witnessing clips and useful instruction, and helpful witnessing tools to make your job easier.
Kurt Cameron and Ray Comfort take you straight to the Bible for instruction on how to witness. They begin with an in-depth look at Jesus’ conversation with the rich young ruler. Pulling insights from this clearly presented discourse, they show the vital importance of using God’s Law in our witnessing encounters.
As they point out, America’s churches are filled with non-believers. In an effort to make the Gospel ‘acceptable’ we have opened our doors wide to whoever would say the right words or walk the aisle. While there is nothing wrong with ‘right words’ or ‘aisle walking’, in and of themselves, too often we have shunned ‘sin’ in favor presenting a ‘Jesus can do this. . . .’ for you Gospel.
However, as these lines from Emerson, Lake, and Palmer’s still popular Christmas carol, “I Believe In Father Christmas” reveal, a seeker friendly approach often leads to disillusioned unbelievers.
“They sold me a dream of Christmas
They sold me a Silent Night
And they told me a fairy story
‘Till I believed in the Israelite “
These words break my heart. Are Christians guilty of false advertising? Have we sold unbelievers a ‘dream’? Have we told them a ‘fairy story’? Did they believe in ‘the Israelite’, but not in the Christ of the Bible?
If so, what are we ‘selling’? Is this the gospel or have we lost the heart behind our message? Are we selling a life-enhancement package or seeking to reach the sinner’s heart with a the hope of salvation from their sins?
If you are searching for direction in how to really witness instead of giving a false hope which will only leave unbelievers disillusioned or resentful toward the Gospel, take a look at Way Of the Master. Kirk and Ray will reveal some simple truths which will reform your idea of witnessing and light a fire in your heart for the lost. And, after all, is not our calling, as Christians, to ‘go’ and ‘preach’ and ‘teach’?
