+ Want to read

Back in print with a brand new cover, this collection of conversations has long been one of our most popular titles. Persuasions follows Evangelist, one of the Master's servants who walks along the road of life and talks to those he meets. Along the way he reasons with fellow travelers about a variety of questions-including atheism, marriage, and hypocrisy in the church. Though this book is a quick read, the thought-provoking arguments it describes are not easily forgotten.
