Inside the Mind of Unchurched Harry and Mary: How to Reach Friends and Family Who Avoid God and the Church
Ebook
Overview
Who Are Unchurched Harry and Mary?
He or she could be the neighbor who is perfectly happy without God. Or the coworker who scoffs at Christianity. Or the supervisor who uses Jesus’ name only as profanity. Or the family member who can’t understand why religion is so important.
Inside the Mind of Unchurched Harry and Mary is an action plan to help you relate the message of Christ to the people you work around, live with, and call your friends.
Using personal experiences, humor, compelling stories, biblical illustrations, and the latest research, Lee Strobel--author of the best-selling The Case for Christ--helps you understand non-Christians and what motivates them.
The book includes:
- 15 key insights into why people steer clear of God and the church.
- A look at Christianity and its message through the eyes of a former atheist.
- Practical, inspirational strategies for building relationships with non-Christians.
- Firsthand advice on surviving marriage to an unbelieving spouse.
