This is an excellent book for the young Christian to gain confidence on witnessing their faith to a hostel person without fear. There are great suggestion on how to approach and establish connect with the individual you want to share your faith. Help in dealing with conflict and when to move on.

A great book for practically encouraging believers to share their faith without fear. This challenges and convicts while also encouraging. The author has an easy writing style that makes for quick and enjoyable reading.

Ray so clearly shows how the Law is needed to show people their sin before a holy God – then they’ll be ready to hear the Good News about Jesus. He offers strategies to help us tell others about God … pray that God will help you love others and give you the right words, and even offers ways to share the Good News without leaving home! This is a thought-provoking, practical book. I received a free copy of this book with no obligation.

Another fantastic book by Ray Comfort. This man is so passionate and gifted in evangelism! This is a great little book to help encourage people to do more evangelism.

This book moved me. I didn´t expect to have that reaction to be honest. I just wanted to read and find out about those "10 ways to overcome fear", I guessed I probably would know them already, and I´d just remember and then move on with my life. But oh! why... Bummer! What I found was a deep conviction going through me. Why is that?! because sometimes it is not fear what is involved in you not be sharing the gospel, it is no lack of knowledge either, what is it then? Indifference probably, also a huge love for my comfort... those where my thoughts after I closed the book... is that to get involved with someone it is going to cost you... everything. When you will get involved you will see that happens. Ray Comfort shares lots of histories of his encounters with people, I think it is a unique way he has to get up and look for targets, I know it is because it is his job, his youtube channel, and his mission, but above all even if we don´t have a channel or platform to share about it, we must keep sharing the gospel, even when no one finds out we are doing it. This is a very comforting book, you will be encouraged, exhorted and challenged as a child of God to share about Him. Can´t wait to get to know people around me who God already had planned us to meet, sometimes for a minute, others for hours, a certain season or for life.

A great guide for evangelism. I have always felt unable to evangelize, like I wasn't good enough to do it. Ray's book is an amazing look at how everyone is capable of evangelism. It was just the encouragement I needed at a trying time in my life.

Ray Comfort has written such a informative book about evangelism. Witnessing to people can be difficult and we sometimes find ourselves searching for the right words that inform yet aren't 'pushy'. Sadly, we do find ourselves thinking that we may not be bold enough or as good with words so, yes, anyone but me can tell others about my faith. He gives so many wonderful ideas in this small, yet powerful, book. Yes, YOU can impact others for Christ!
Comfort is well known for his series "The Way of the Master" in which he talks with people on the street about salvation and where their heart is at regarding the matter. This book describes some of the methods that he's found helpful in expressing to others those thoughts.

Anyone but Me
10 Ways to Overcome Your Fear and Be Prepared to Share the Gospel
by Ray Comfort
Baker Books
Christian
Pub Date 05 May 2020




I am reviewing a copy of Anyone But Me through Baker Books and Netgalley:





The primary reason we often don’t share the gospel with our family, friends and coworkers is fear. We fear that we do not the right to answer their questions. We are afraid that if they reject the Gospel, they are in fact rejecting us. We are determined not to do anything that makes the situation awkward, or strains our relationships to those we care about. Instead we say nothing because in that moment our discomfort feels bigger than our loved ones' ultimate destination if they remain outside of the body of Christ. Deep down we know that is not the case, but in the moment that is how we react.






Ray Comfort who is an apologist is here to help in Anyone But Me. In this book he shows you how to overcome these fears by developing ten critical, biblical characteristics so that you can confidently share the message of salvation with your loved ones. If you have been longing see a dear friend, family member, or coworker come to Christ, now is the time to begin becoming the faithful witness they need. We never know how much time we have so now is the time to share the good news.




I give Anyone But Me five out of five stars!



Happy Reading!

I love watching Ray Comfort on you tube and I was trilled to receive an ARC of this book. This book explains with Scripture why it is every Christians duty to evangelize and how we can overcome that fear and do it! I highly recommend this book and it inspired me to order gospel tracts and get out there! Thanks to NetGalley and publisher for ARC.

While I have watched a few of Ray Comfort’s videos, this is the first time I’ve read one of his books. It is a book packed with a lot of Scripture (though he uses quite a few versions) and a lot of examples from his own ministry. It definitely gives a lot of ideas to help Christians know how to witness in different circumstances and is a convicting read.

I almost hate to point out things I find against a book like this, because his gospel message is Biblically sound and I believe his heart is in the right place. However, two little things: he didn’t really encourage team witnessing or church support. But if you read in Acts (or even the Gospels where Jesus sent His disciples out two-by-two), you’ll see that these are very important. There is not solo-Christian work encouraged in the Bible, but Ray Comfort didn’t clearly mention that (I could have missed it). So, if you just take what you read here and apply it to teams, it is a very good book for ideas and encouragement to get into more active witnessing.

*I received this book from the publisher and happily provided my honest review*

This is a well written book with a powerful message. It is not a book you will speed read, it is a book you will take notes and apply to your life. I will read this book more than once and refer back to it often. Thank you Ray Comfort and Baker Books via NetGalley for the ARC copy of this book. All opinions expressed are my own.

This title ,Anyone But Me , is so perfect for this book. It sums up how I feel and I am sure how most Christians feel about our mission of sharing the Gospel to all. How many times are we given that message when reading the Bible? How often have you felt inadequate, afraid ? In sharing his personal experiences of street preaching and the stories of people he has encountered, Ray has given a wake up call to us all., He has shown that we are to do this. Thank you Ray Comfort. Definitely a 5 star book.

In his engaging and winsome way, Ray Comfort writes this book to help Christians feel a compassion and empathy for those who have not yet come to Christ. It takes seeing the lost as God sees them for us to set aside our fear of rejection and the discomfort of confronting them with the truth and to help them come to the understanding that this is the most important decision they will ever make.
Ray shows scriptural support for each step along the way, from preparing ourselves by knowing the Gospel, practicing speaking it to strangers, and focusing on the cross of Jesus Christ so that we are not drawn off base by empty arguments. As important as apologetics can be, the Gospel cuts to the quick and helps humble those who are ready to hear it. This is not a book about how many angels can dance on the head of a pin—this is practical, biblical direction for using the Ten Commandments as a mirror to show a person their sinfulness compared to God’s righteousness, so that they can see the need for a Savior. A person dying of cancer will not avail themselves of the cure until they have been diagnosed conclusively with the dread disease. This book helps Christ followers become adept at pointing out the cancerous growth that all humans have—sin—and pointing to the only Cure—Jesus Christ.

Ray thoroughly explores the 10 qualities needed for an individual to share the gospel effectively in these challenging times. The book is filled with accounts of his own experiences sharing with so many different people. He shares what worked well and what to beware of from his own failures – a mark of true humility. His love for God’s Word is clearly evident in all he writes and how he chooses to live. Each chapter is filled with applicable scripture to support every point he makes, so is extremely practical and usable for anyone burdened for those who don't have a relationship with Jesus. I had no problem relating to common fears, yet was refreshed by how he worked through them. This is definitely a wake-up call for Christians to be bold, fearless and willing to share their faith as Christ commands in His great commission by following His example and the example of his loving servant, Ray Comfort. I highly recommend it!

I just finished reading my advanced electronic copy. So many takeaways! For this read thru, I basically read a chapter a day, taking notes along the way.
Will certainly be re-reading very soon, and will be devoting a week per chapter. Very much looking forward to deeper focus and reflection, as I was finding the book provided insight into many areas of my life.
Blessed by this experience!

This is the best book I've read on overcoming fear and being prepared to share the gospel with family, friends, strangers, anyone who needs to hear the truth and power of the gospel. I must admit that I am not as bold and as much of a go-getter as Ray is, but I found this book so practical and helpful in guiding me more in that direction.

This quote really spoke to my heart: "But in our ignorant zeal, we can sometimes cause damage to the gospel. We must remember that without God's help, we can do nothing. All of our pleadings are nothing but dead words if the Holy Spirit doesn't bring them to life. So we must do everything in prayer. We pray before we present the gospel, we are prayerful while we speak, and we pray after we conclude, because we know that salvation is of the Lord. Every time we open our mouths for the kingdom of God, we are exercising trust - faith that God will take our words and drive them home to the sinner's conscience."

At the end of the day, it's not about me, my words, my deeds, my fear, my shortcomings, my desire to be comfortable, etc. I must exercise my faith in the one true God and trust that He will guide me on the path of leading people to Him. I must do my part, and trust that God will do His part. My part is simply to take people through the moral law (Ten Commandments) so that they will understand why they need a Savior. Jesus is Good News! He is the way out of our sin and death. Ray's book makes it easy to understand the best way to explain the need for salvation and guides those of us who are too much in our heads, and not enough in our hearts, to share this amazing news with others. Great read!
