Written by Gold Medallion nominee Randy Newman, this captivating sequel to <i>Questioning Evangelism</i> allows readers to learn new evangelistic skills by eavesdropping on important conversations that grapple with hot-button issues.<p/><br></br><p><b> From the Back Cover </b></p></br></br><p>Turnerville--an imaginary place where people take time to think and discuss real issues without condemnation or sarcastic cracks.</p> <p> In an age of hurried communication via e-mail, text messages, instant messaging, and cell phones, a place like Turnerville sounds really appealing--doesn't it? </p> <p> Written by Randy Newman, Gold Medallion nominee for <em>Questioning Evangelism</em>, this book allows readers to learn new conversational skills by eavesdropping on important dialogues that grapple with hot-button issues such as: </p> <p> - Why does God allow suffering?<br> - Why should we believe the Bible? <br> - Is Jesus really the only way? <br> - Can we know about life after death? </p> <p>We hear discussions on these kinds of topics, but rarely are they presented in a way that promotes respect without compromise, listening without patronizing, and convictions without arrogance. That's all about to change. So pull up a seat; we have a lot to discuss.</p> <p><strong>Randy Newman</strong> has worked with Campus Crusade for more than twenty-five years. He currently works in the Washington, D.C., area, interacting with students, professors, and officers at the Pentagon. He is a frequent conference speaker and specializes in helping people of different backgrounds dialogue about issues of faith.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>Complete, realistic conversations with straight questions and answers are presented; some readers may find them offensive because of their directness though. Each conversation ends with a Keep the Conversation Going recommended reading section and a notes section. Recommended for Sunday schools and outreach groups interested in learning what to say to unbelievers.--BLE "Church Libraries" (12/31/2006 12:00:00 AM)<br><br>Corner Conversations is written for those looking for better evangelistic tools and for skeptics who are looking for the truth. In this follow-up to his 2005 Gold Medallion nominated Questioning Evangelism, Randy Newman allows his readers to listen in on conversations in this imaginary town to encourage open and honest conversations to continue in the real world. In this age of new and instant forms of electronic communication, the art of dialoguing with people who are wrestling with real issuesósuffering, the Bible, eternity, Jesus, sex, skepticism, evil, and spiritual journeysóseems to be lost. Corner Conversations is about reaching into peoples hearts the way Jesus didóthrough conversation.-- "EventSetter.com" (8/1/2006 12:00:00 AM)<br><br>Randy Newman's first book Questioning Evangelism is one of the best books on evangelism around. If you haven't read itóbuy it, read it and put it into practice. Corner Conversations is his follow-up, although you won't need to have read Questioning Evangelism to understand Corner Conversations . . . . Newman has been clever in many ways, but one that I enjoyed was that the style of the conversations is differentósome are very friendly, some employ the cut and thrust of friendly but pointed argument. Yet each conversation is marked by openness and compassion. So there is something here for each of us, and something here for the different types of friendships, each conversation having several points that you feel that you could use yourself. And the chapters finish by pointing you to further resources.--Mark Loughridge "three17.blogspot.com" (11/15/2006 12:00:00 AM)<br>
