Easy Witnessing

Your potential mission field in someone's front yard.

Earlier this year, I published a small book called Aspects of Salvation. It is of a length to appear adequately substantial, but not too long as to appear overwhelming and overly time-consuming. It also has what I think to be an attractive and appealing cover (particularly the Amazon version). It is free here on this website in PDF format and can be purchased on Amazon in paperback and Kindle, if preferred. I produced a similarly titled predecessor to it a few years ago; it was shared and available on this site as well. However, in late 2025, as I was running out of the fairly large number of hard copies of it that I had printed a few years prior, I felt the need to do some revisions, expansions, and additions; Aspects of Salvation is the result of that effort. The primary reason that I produced this relatively small treatise is because I would have so much loved to have had someone hand me something like it prior to February of 2015 when I had an anxiety attack that largely stemmed from my struggle with the lack of assurance of salvation, which primarily came from my gross misunderstanding of the Gospel.

This small book and its predecessor have been well received by many individuals, and I am quite certain that God has used it as a tool to lead a good number of people to saving faith in Christ. It is extensively backed with cited Scripture. It explains and discusses numerous aspects of the Gospel in detail, as the title suggests. I would encourage each of you to read it, especially if you are at all uncertain of your eternal destiny, and/or if you somehow think that receiving and/or keeping salvation is at all based on your performance. However, it is also very much worth reading by the person who is rightly assured of their irrevocable salvation, as it contains a number of evangelistic tools that I have witnessed as being proven to be quite effective in clearly presenting the Gospel. It is also an encouraging and enjoyable reminder to the seasoned saint of his/her blessed hope.

I have been purchasing "author copies," which only I am allowed to purchase, from Amazon and leaving them in the "free little libraries" that I come across (these cost me considerably less than just buying from Amazon's main site, but they are identical). I have also simply been giving them to people when the opportunity presents itself. They are also being distributed in my jail ministry and are now being sold in at least one bookstore that I am aware of. I would encourage you to use this tool that has already been generated and proven effective, to do the same. You are free to download the free PDF version from this site if you would like, print it, and distribute it, as long as the text is 100% complete and IS NOT ALTERED IN ANY WAY. Please let me know if you do this. Copies can also be purchased directly from Amazon. This does cost you more, but it also puts the book higher on the site's algorithm so it is more likely to be seen, thus more likely to be purchased, thus more likely to be read by someone who needs to hear the Gospel who may not be reached otherwise. Please know that I have the price set as low as I am allowed to in order to have worldwide distribution; I receive very little in terms of royalties for these book sales, which is of course just fine. I spend many, many times more than I currently receive from any royalties on purchasing author copies that I give away.

You can also contact me, and I can have author copies printed for you that you can purchase at my cost. I show you the invoice, you pay me what it indicates, I order the books and have them shipped to you. To be clear, I make zero profit here, which is, of course, just fine; this is ministry; the profit is on the other side and measured in much more eternally substantial ways than monetary royalties. Please note that the version that is in the free PDF has a different cover with fewer pages and a smaller font, but it is the same text that is in the Amazon version; that is just how it had to be. Once again, if you do choose to distribute the PDF, please let me know.

The work of producing this book has been done. Now, distributing it is an easy, effective, and inexpensive way for you to do your part in spreading the Gospel in your community at large, as well as in your local churches. I would strongly encourage you to consider partnering with me in this ministry. As the title of this post suggests, this is indeed Easy Witnessing. God bless.
