Should Christians Frighten People During Evangelism?
I’m guessing that most people, whether Christian or not, will respond to this question with a loud “no!” Scaring people is not part of our evangelistic work and puts people off rather than drawing them to God.
In the past, I may have agreed with this natural response but a few years down the line, my perspective has definitely shifted.
Most of us would agree that Christians motivated by hate, a

Slow in places but brings a sense of urgency to evangelism Whilst I don't necessarily agree with all of the theology of this series, I do think they contribute to the discussions about the end times. This book picks up those that have been left behind ...more |

Brilliant It's amusing that this book has generated about the same number of 1 star and 5 star ratings. Whilst the Creationists have clearly explained why they love this book, the Evolutionists just say it is inaccurate without stating what or providi ...more |

Terrible I thought this might provide some light reading but it's actually pretty offensive. Being trendy is one thing, but irreverent is something different. There is a lot of toilet humour, over sharing personal information and even swearing with ju ...more |

A real mixture I love climbing books but....I struggled with this. The format didn't really work for me. The author splits his stories into chapters which aren't chronological. The start of each chapter has a quick summary. I became lost and confused ...more |

Moving and Inspiring What a tragic tale. Peter's life seemed doomed from the outset when he was badly burned in a house fire, probably started by his parent's neglect. His childhood was truly terrible and heart breaking to read about. It's hardly surp ...more |

“If I firmly believed, as millions say they do, that the knowledge of a practice of religion in this life influences destiny in another, then religion would mean to me everything. I would cast away earthly enjoyments as dross, earthly thoughts and feelings as vanity. Religion would be my first waking thought and my last image before sleep sank me into unconsciousness. I should labor in its cause alone. I would take thought for the marrow of eternity alone. I would esteem one soul gained for heaven worth a life of suffering. Earthly consequences would never stay in my head or seal my lips. Earth, its joys and its griefs, would occupy no moment of my thoughts. I would strive to look upon eternity alone, and on the immortal souls around me, soon to be everlastingly happy or everlastingly miserable. I would go forth to the world and preach to it in season and out of season. and my text would be, "What shall it profit a man if he gains the whole world and loses his own soul”

Natalie, would you be willing to review my book, "Outlander Chronicles: Phoenix" ? I could provide either a digital or paper copy. [And forgive me if my request is a breach of goodreads etiquette; I'm not aware]. Thanks!

If you have your original Word doc, just do a search for God/Jesus/Christ etc and then check that they aren't used as curse words in the context....There were at least a handful...Let me know once you've done it and I'll amend my review for you!

Hi Natalie,
I'm now seeing your reply. I would very much like to see any examples of blasphemy that you came across in my book and amend them if possible.
Happy New Year!

Hi Angela, I did enjoy your book. I'm a little surprised that you weren't aware of the blasphemy--you write as if it was a surprise to you or as if the characters themselves decided what to write! Please don't blame your decision to include blasphemy on the characters that you created ....You could always remove it if you are really disappointed by it...I would happily amend my review if you choose to do so....Blessings
Hi Natalie,Thanks for your thorough review of my book Coming Out of Egypt. I do appreciate your honest opinion, but I am disappointed that you found some blasphemy. I don't recall any, but if there is, I can only accredit it to either a character's ignorance about God or his/her anger at God.
