Get Real: Sharing Your Everyday Faith Every Day

Leonard, John

Phillipsburg, NJ: P&R Publishing, 2009

This has to be one of the most helpful “how to” books on the task of witnessing. Leonard invites readers to move beyond superficiality and to work at developing deeper spiritual relationships with our neighbors, not to use friendship as a means to our evangelistic ends but to practice real care for them (one chapter is entitled “Listen More Than You Speak”). Such a loving relationship is the context in which believers can share spiritual truths in a gracious, nonthreatening way.
