Very often people find the gospel unbelievable. Two groups of Christians contribute to this unbelief. The first group shares a gospel that is preachy, impersonal, intolerant, condescending, or shallow—mediocre news at best. We may mention who Jesus is, even what he has done, without lifting a finger to delve into the doubts and struggles people face. The second group remains silent hoping their actions will remedy evangelistic concerns. The problem, however, is that the “good news” must be heard. Addressing each of these five important concerns, Unbelievable Gospel charts a wise and patient way forward in recovering a more believable evangelism. Using the concept of Gospel Metaphors, illustrated with real life stories, this book offers a way to listen to others in order to share a gospel worth believing.
