“This book should be required reading by every pastor.” –Gayle Chandler, Author of Embrace the Pain and Affirming You

“This book offers an authentic and openhanded expression of the truth we have experienced, and a deep faith in the work of the Holy Spirit to do the evangelizing.”
--M. Craig Barnes, President Emeritus, Princeton Theological Seminary

How can believers engage in evangelism when they feel little or no connection with the activity? In what ways can church leaders effectively communicate the importance of evangelism? Can evangelism help bridge the gap between communities, subcultures, and generations? How can clergy engage evangelism to meet the challenges of today’s church, including decline and indifference? Freestyle is a book that addresses these important questions.

As scholar, professor, and pastor Kale Yu explains, freestyle is the individuals’ authentic expression of their realignment in Christ. He reminds us that we have all that we need to freestyle. Providing a path toward a recovery of evangelism, he redefines our understanding and practice of evangelism and lays out a blueprint with guidelines to reconceive evangelism as self-discovery in Christ rather than a method to be followed. Most importantly, he sets forth a vision to help individuals and churches to approach evangelism that is individualized and authentic to the self.

“Self-discovery is not a term that you often hear in evangelism but it is a central theme in freestyle evangelism.”
