Foreword
“Timothy Robnett has been a wonderful mentor of mine, and through his many years of faithful service, evangelists from around the world have found similar encouragement and support. There is great joy in knowing we have a growing team of evangelists to take on every situation that comes our way, pressing into every corner of the field.”
“What is the ‘secret sauce’ that completes the life, calling, and ministry function of the evangelist? The answer is in Telling the Story, where Timothy Robnett and Luis Palau share the characteristics and spiritual requirements of the humble servant of the church. The content is not only challengingly informative, but also transformational to the evangelist who is communicating messages relevant to today’s generation—a blessing to everyone who peruses it.”
“I highly recommend Telling the Story to any aspiring Christian evangelist or missionary. This updated edition serves as an invaluable guide for a new generation of devoted individuals seeking to honor their calling and magnify the Lord. This book is a must-read for anyone yearning to serve God wholeheartedly and make a lasting impact in their evangelistic and missionary endeavors.”
“Second Timothy 4:5 says, ‘Do the work of an evangelist.’ Every evangelist needs tools for their toolbelt to reach the nations for Jesus Christ. Timothy Robnett and Luis Palau, in their masterpiece, Telling the Story, will give you the necessary tools you’ll need as an evangelist. I highly recommend Telling the Story, which will encourage, energize, and equip you to tell the story of Jesus Christ to the nations.”
“This book by Timothy Robnett and Luis Palau is of benefit to anyone interested in an evangelistic ministry. It is biblical, practical, and written by two men who are gifted, experienced evangelists. More importantly, they exemplify a love for the Lord, along with lives of godliness and integrity. This is a resource evangelists can refer to often to be refreshed and reenergized in their calling.”
“Timothy Robnett has been my coach, mentor, and partner in the gospel for around twenty years. As a coach and mentor, he taught me what it meant to be an evangelist in my context. Robnett’s mission has always been to identify, affirm, equip, train and mobilize the evangelist. This book is a tool that speaks to this mission and is a great entry point into building an evangelistic association. I continually come back to this book to train my staff to work in this space.”
“The passion and experience of Timothy Robnett and Luis Palau for evangelism is readily apparent. Their insights offer practical instruction and application for today. I’ve done ministry alongside Robnett for years, and he’s the real deal. His work in training and supporting evangelists in the US and around the world reflects his love for Jesus and a commitment to live into the gifting and call God has put on his life.”
“Timothy Robnett is my friend and partner in ministry. He is a gifted evangelist with a call on his life to equip and train others to do the work of evangelism. I pray that his new book will be an encouragement to every person called of God to serve our king in the field of evangelism. I hope you will not only read this book but apply its principles as you serve in the field of evangelism. I challenge you to use every available means to reach every available person.”
