 internet course in printed form! highly recommended! October 18, 2008
this is a great overall review or 1st time getting familiar with the different ways to reach the unsaved. it touches briefly on different cults, atheism, evolution, science, faith, prophecy, contridictions in the bible, 10 commandments, sin, etc. not super in depth but enough examples and situations to get you familiar with how to answer the most commonly asked questions. it is a real easy read and you will find you cant put the book down. after reading it if you are interested in a certain subject in the back of the book it gives you recommendations of further study. rays writing annoys some people but he uses down to earth examples. to many times we christians try to show our own knowledge and it goes over an unbelievers head.
this is the printed version of the course on the way of the master website. it is alot cheaper and you can buy the evidence bible by ray also that goes into detail on subjects as you read the bible. get both, i did, and you will learn a tremendous amount of info. but at the end of the day you will have real world knowlegde of how to keep it basic but keep it real to unbelievers. one of the best things i have learned about evangilizing is how easy it is. ray talks about leaving tracts or giving tracts away. a tract is a small 10-12 page pamphlet that cost about $.25 each you can hand to people or leave at places you visit for some one to find. each tract explains a different subject, you just have to find one that you think will work or one that would of worked on you if you were a non believer. the tracts are available on the way of the master website, and chick publications. chick publications have over 100 tracts. give'em a try. thanks for reading. may god bless you on your journey. peace be with you, de colores.

This is a book that is really a great school for anyone who wants to be an effective witness for Christ in this generation. It trains you to use the method that Jesus himself and arms you with facts that help you answer the world's objections. This is one winner of a book! Thank you Ray and Kirk!
 An Embarassment February 26, 2008
2 out of 8 found this review helpful
I'm sorry, but this book is an embarrassment to the Christian faith. For some readers, the fact that I rated an evangelism book by Cameron and Comfort with one star automatically results in a disregard for all that will follow. But I would encourage you to read ahead.
I am a Christian. A pastor myself in an evangelical church. Evangelism and apologetics are important. Very important. But Cameron and Comfort here address deep and complex issues with cliched soundbites and a severe belittlement of their "opponents."
An example of many: In a chapter on addressing the foolishness of evolution, Cameron and Comfort advise, "Don't spend too much time on the subject of evolution. It is the gospel that is the power of God to salvation, so it's important to swing from apologetics ... to the Moral Law ... as quickly as is comfortably possible" (424). The suggested dialogue that accompanies this advise paints an evolutionist named Miss Guided as mockably ignorant. She doesn't know how to articulate evolution and indeed presents it incorrectly. I have talked with many who hold the theory of evolution, and virtually all of them have been able to present their arguments with great sophistication. In a chapter INTENDED TO ADDRESS EVOLUTION, they mock it and advise you to not engage the issue on a legitimate level.
If we want to educate people of biblical conviction and encourage their own faith in the process, it does no good to make light and poke fun of challenging arguements. Further, each chapter contains approximately FOUR PAGES that only lightly and vaguely address the issues (plus example dialogues and "study" questions). I'm sorry, but their is no way to legitimately work through the very well stated arguemnts of leading darwinists such as Richard Dawkins, Daniel Dennett, Christopher Hitchens, and Stephen Hawking using only four pages.
At the end of the day, it is naive works like this that contribute to the widespread ignorance of many Evangelical Christians today, who are unable to make any reasonable presentation of faith apart from a watered down ability to truely talk about the concerns that real and genuine people face.
On the other hand, to the person looking for a book that deals honstly and not mockingly with issues of faith, I would point her to another I have recently read: "What's So Great About Christianity" by Dinesh D'Souza. Though I am an Evanglical pastor, I am a bit of a hard sell, going into D'Souza's book a little skeptically myself. His philosophy is his strength. Though I have heard and read critiques on his science and biblical study, D'Souza does a great job working through lots of the philosophical obstacles toward believing in the existance of God. It is definitely worth taking some of your time. In this regard, he is deep and rich and challenging. If you're looking for something to encourage you're own faith, and give you words to TRULY address the concerns and challenges you face, you MUST pick up this book.
Thanks for listening.
Great Study! February 15, 2008

I have been very impressed with this study! I have learned a lot and am so glad it contains many Bible verses, and quotes from Christian leaders (and others) through the years. It has really convicted and encouraged me to be a more consistent witness. Thanks to Ray Comfort and Kirk Cameron. I would encourage anyone to buy this book!

I think that one of the most important things but least done by Christians is "Evangelism". I love this book because it gives you the information that you need to build confidence in training Christians on how to evangelize. I love reading this book. It is the paper version of their (The Way of the Master) online course. It is handy and you can go through one of the lessons in just a few minutes.
