Great for Youth Ministers Wanting to Grow Their Youth Group

This is a great book for youth ministers who are looking to grow their youth group with evangelism. The author desires the reader not to sell out the gospel in order to grow their youth group. He goows through how to get more youth in your church, keep them, and teach them how to reach out to others. He also helps the reader understand how to share the gospel Biblically. My favorite chapter is where he shows how to and how not to share the gospel by shooting down old phrases that are not even a part of Scripture. I recommend this book to anyone looking to expand their youth ministry beyond the four walls of the church.

This book is contagious!

I loved Outbreak! It invites teenagers and youth workers to enter into the action of seeing young hearts changed and effected for eternity. The viral nature of truth being passed around, and author Greg Stier's obvious passion for evangelism exude throughout the book. Outbreak is contagious and captures a real-time, real-world approach to impacting teenagers for God. Also, the commitment to sharing propositional Truth and not just personal opinions and experiences is worth the read in itself.
