About
Jesus says his followers are the salt of the earth. But many Christians struggle with this call to be active in the world as witnesses to Christ. The word evangelism often carries negative connotations. How do we cut through fear and guilt to communicate our faith freely and effectively? In this bestselling classic, Rebecca Manley Pippert offers a refreshing view of evangelism as a lifestyle. For over forty years, Out of the Saltshaker and Into the World has equipped believers of different backgrounds around the world. Using memorable stories, biblical insight, and practical communication techniques, Pippert points to Jesus as our model and helps us feel relaxed and enthusiastic about sharing the good news. This landmark work is now available as part of the IVP Signature Collection, which features special editions of iconic books in celebration of the seventy-fifth anniversary of InterVarsity Press.

"As Christians, every Christmas we happily buy devotional books. Why? Because devotional books are safe. We read them in private for our own edification. But Christians don't buy as many books on evangelism. Why? Because books on evangelism are dangerous. They're only going to ask us to be public about our faith. And there's nothing scarier than that! But fear no more. Because this wonderful new edition of Out of the Saltshaker and Into the World will inspire you. It will get you excited about the good news of Jesus. It will get you relying on God's power-especially through the Holy Spirit-and not yours to tell your friends about Jesus. And most importantly, you will realize that it's more about being evangelistic than a method of evangelism."

"Becky Manley Pippert has given her life to giving people the confidence to speak about Jesus. How does she do it? First and foremost, she's absolutely thrilled about Jesus, and he is the message. Then she models the fact that the sovereign Lord loves to organize encounters with lost people, and the Spirit loves to illumine their hearts . . . wonderful! But Becky is not naïve; she understands our guilty silence and helps us practice the presence of Christ as we seek to overcome our fears and discover what it means to live and speak for Jesus."
