From today's Gospel: Jesus said to the Twelve: "Fear no one. Nothing is concealed that will not

be revealed, nor secret that will not be known.

What I say to you in the darkness, speak in the light; what you hear whispered, proclaim on the housetops. And do not be afraid of those who kill

the body but cannot kill the soul; rather,

 be afraid of the one who can destroy both soul

and body in Gehenna. (Matt 10:26-28).

How to Talk About Jesus

with Anyone

Tested Techniques for

Planting Seeds and Saving Souls
$10

It’s the one thing we all should be doing but probably aren’t.

(Or not enough.) Exercising? Eating right? Calling Mom? No: spreading the good news about Jesus Christ and his salvation. This job isn’t optional. It’s an explicit command from the Lord himself. So why do we work hard to be good Catholics in so many other ways—going to church, obeying the commandments, persevering in prayer—but make excuses about our reluctance to evangelize? In How to Talk About Jesus with Anyone, Steve Dawson (St. Paul Street Evangelization) teams up with  Cy Kellett (Catholic Answers Live) to help you replace those excuses  witha tested plan for going from timid and hesitant to confident and zealous in your daily duty to save souls. Building on decades of experience sharing the saving truths of the gospel, Steve and Cy

will show you: • Why you don’t have to be an extrovert or hold a Ph.D.    in theology to evangelize effectively • How to tell when people are receptive to hearing the gospel (hint: more often than you think!) •

The one weird trick that opens the door to dialogue (and the door-closing mistakes to avoid) • How to guard against ways the devil will try to stop you . . . and more! How to Talk About Jesus with Anyone will help you turn everyday encounters into opportunities to gift others with

life-changing truth. In so doing, you will fulfill Christ’s command,

swell the ranks of heaven, and—perhaps unexpectedly—discover

the secret reward of the evangelist: joy.
