You Are Witnesses of These Things

Sharing the Story of Jesus

Craig Alan Satterlee

Chelsey Satterlee

With all that is happening in society, the world, and their lives, people are open, even eager, to receive the story of Jesus and the good news that God is working to bring unconditional love and abundant life to all creation. In fact, the only reason new people will join the church is because they received the story of Jesus, want to learn more about Jesus, and experience the church actively following Jesus.

 You Are Witnesses of These Things: Sharing the Story of Jesus equips and empowers Christians to share the story of Jesus with people for whom it is new for no other reason than because Jesus is such life-changing, world-shaping good news. This book brings the good news to people who do not yet know Jesus and helps people who know Jesus to be comfortable and confident sharing this good news with others.

You Are Witnesses of These Things: Sharing the Story of Jesus is available in paperback and Ebook editions on Amazon.com. Order Now.
