Prepared to Answer: Telling the Greatest Story Ever Told

by Mark Paustian

Book Overview

"How do I tell someone about Jesus?"

As a Christian, you often want to tell other people about Jesus and what he's done for them, but it isn't always easy to know how to respond when your friend, family member, coworker, or someone else asks you tough questions about your faith. Questions like:

Where is the evidence that God even exists? What kind of God demands worship? Whatever happened to tolerance? Why doesn't God answer my prayers? Where is God when I'm hurting?

If you've ever felt unprepared to answer those questions, you're not alone. Prepared to Answer provides you with helpful examples for sharing your faith through loving, Scripture-based responses to some common objections to Christianity.

Through a unique, storytelling and narrative approach, author Mark Paustian provides you with engaging answers to the questions listed above as well as questions about why bad things happen, different interpretations of the Bible, abortion, miracles, Jesus as a myth, morality, and so much more.

After reading this book, you'll be prepared to answer when people ask you about your faith and point them to their Savior, Jesus.
