As a Baptist studying at Westminster Theological Seminary, I often felt like I was in a foreign country. The Presbyterian brothers had their own language (memo to self: "session" means "elder board"), their own understanding of whether household servants are meant to be in the covenant, and their own cascade of angry looking Scotsmen frowning down on me in disapproval.

But one thing that I discovered is that there was a vein of friendly, happy Presbyterians who were doing some great thinking on evangelism and missions (think Harvie Conn). And one of the best resources to come out of that group is The Pastor-Evangelist, edited by Roger Greenway.

The book contains fourteen chapters, written by (among others) Edmund Clowney, T.M. Moore, Jack Miller, and Harry Reeder. Particularly helpful are the chapters on "Prayer and Evangelism", "Hospitality Evangelism", and "Equipping the Church for Lifestyle Evangelism". Even though it's 20 years old, the principles hold largely true today.

If you're a pastor and you would benefit from some practical, Biblical advice on how you and your church can do a better job spreading the gospel, this is a great place to start. Even this guy would approve.
