The Soul Winner: Advice on Effective Evangelism
Charles H. Spurgeon
Christian Focus, 2008
256 pages
C. H. Spurgeon, oft recognized as the “prince of preachers,” was fiercely evangelistic. Under his ministry, Victorian London saw revival on a scale never seen since. His book, The Soul Winner, isn’t a “step-by-step” process on evangelism, but a collection of lectures meant to encourage the apathetic or timid Christian. Lambasting gimmicks and fads, Spurgeon challenges his readers to be about the business of winning souls with characteristic wisdom and wit.
