EVANGELISM INDEX PAGE
This page contains links to articles related to outreach, evangelistic Bible study tools, and related resources. It does not include all of my sermons that are specifically evangelistic. Those are most easily accessed in the
Topical Sermon Index and the
Textual Sermon Index.
Quest For Truth Evangelistic Bible Studies
These evangelism lessons are made available as a convenience for those who may need to print more copies. The website referenced in the lessons (QFTS.org) lapsed after the death of Don Calhoun who served as director of Ambassadors for Christ. These materials were previously distributed free through links on the QFTS website.
If you have information about other sources of the lessons, please contact me.
