Publisher's Synopsis
Sharing the Gospel of Salvation aims to equip the Church of England for the task of evangelism in a multifaith context. This revised and expanded edition incorporates a range of new insights and good practice guidance arising from the work of the Church of England's Presence and Engagement programme, which seeks to resource those churches with at least 10% of parishioners from another religious tradition, enabling them to become confident in sharing the gospel sensitively and effectively with people from other backgrounds, and in welcoming those who embrace Christian faith. As well as featuring a new Introduction and Afterword by Archbishop Justin Welby, the second edition has been fully updated in terms of social context, statistics and further reading. It also contains a wealth of stories from local churches which demonstrate that evangelism, work for the common good, and interfaith dialogue are not three competing and contradictory activities for the Church but integral aspects of mission. It is essential reading for all those involved in or training for mission and ministry in a multifaith context.
