About this audiobook
The Zondervan Biblical and Theological Lectures series provides a unique audio learning experience. Unlike a traditional audiobook's direct narration of a book's text, Organic Outreach: Audio Lectures includes high quality live-recordings of college-level lectures that cover the important points from each subject as well as relevant material from other sources.
Every follower of Jesus has a sincere desire to share God's love with others. We want to tell friends and family about who Jesus is, what he means to us, and all he has done for us. Deep in our hearts we have a burning passion to pass on the good news we have received. But where do we start?
Organic Outreach: Audio Lectures will help you shape a personal approach to passing on the good news of Jesus in natural ways. This is not a system or a program. It's a collection of biblical practices that you can incorporate into your life starting today. You can begin right where God has placed you. You can share the love and message of Jesus in a way that fits exactly how God has wired you. In this practical study, pastor and author Kevin Harney offers the tools needed to reach out with God's love in organic ways.

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Evangelism is one of the functions of the church which seems obvious but often gets either neglected or poorly planned and executed. It remains a difficult challenge to develop effective evangelistic programs for a congregation.In Organic Outreach for Churches, Kevin Harney provides suggestions for congregations to become more effective in evangelism by finding ways to integrate evangelism into many of the things they already do and to make evangelism a natural part of the work and life of the congregation (hence, "organic").Many of the suggestions simply re-focus a congregation on goals and purposes: is there true love for God? Do we love those in the world enough to be willing to change some of the ways we engage in our liberties? Do we think highly of the church or do we continue to denigrate it for its imperfections? Harney goes on to offer suggestions on how to shift thought processes toward evangelism and integrating evangelism into existing work congregations accomplish. He speaks of raising the evangelism temperature by a degree and shifting ministry focus beyond just the members toward those outside of a congregation. He concludes by encouraging people to experiment with means of evangelism and to go out and present the Gospel message to people.There is an expectation in the book that the churches under discussion are rather bureaucratically organized with different "ministries" and such like, but there are still plenty of suggestions that can benefit churches who maintain a more informal set of processes. A book worth considering when seeking to promote evangelism within an existing congregation.
