If, like me, you get slightly jaded with all the talking about evangelism without ever getting round to it, Justyn Rees's book will come as a real tonic. He has a relentless enthusiasm for talking about Jesus and that is conveyed in this book.
His desire to be practical is revealed right at the beginning, when we are introduced to Fred. 'Neighbour', Rees believes, is too general a term to be a real flesh and blood person. We must come up with our own equivalent of Fred as we read, someone we know, or we are told the book will be of only limited value. Simple really, except how often do we actually do that? The succeeding chapters are real-life experiences in how the good news can be related in different ways to our Fred.
