Reviews

Praise for That's Good News

The evangelism philosophy, theology, strategies, and practices outlined in That's Good News have been Shane’s daily practices throughout the years. I highly recommend this engaging, practical, and humorous guide for anyone seeking to share his or her faith in Christ Jesus. Let's walk along with our friend, Shane, as we join the Lord Jesus in His life transforming mission.

Roger D. Lipe

Character Coach Director, Nations of Coaches

Shane Bishop loves Jesus, loves talking about Jesus, loves seeing other people fall in love with Jesus. He is all about Jesus, and his life and ministry reflect that irrefutable fact. With this practical, fun, and relevant read, he schools us in the art of evangelism and reminds us that far from being dead, evangelism is where the good life is. Pick this one up, absorb its lessons, then buy a copy for everyone on your staff team, in your small group, or just do the right thing and share it with your whole church.

Carolyn Moore

founding and lead pastor of Mosaic Church

Shane hit the ball out of the park in this book. Using practical tips and engaging stories, he shows how anyone can share Christ with friends, family, and even strangers. His biblical exegesis is spot on; his illustrations and stories are heartwarming and engaging, making this an easy read. Reading this book will help you become a better, more confident, and more comfortable witness for Christ. This is a must-read for every pastor, and every pastor should require every leader in their church to read it. The world needs good news, and there is no joy like helping someone discover the Good News!

Mark Brooks

The Stewardship Coach, Acts 17 Generosity

I love the way that Shane makes evangelism so easy and practical. He takes the fear away and eases us gently into seeing Evangelism as a way of life. His ability to weave stories with practical suggestions for personal discipleship and mission, is not only creative but he does it with exceptional skill. This resource will encourage, challenge, and help you to share Jesus in ways that connect.

Rev. Ashley Cooper

Principal, Cliff, College, United Kingdom

In a culture where Christians are often most known for what they are against, Shane takes us on a journey to remind us to reclaim what we are for: Hope, Joy, Peace and Eternal Life. Sharing the good news of Jesus is a privilege. For Shane this isn’t theory. It’s how he lives and leads. With a practical approach, this book will help you refocus the mandate of evangelism. Fishing for others with passion and focus.

Co-founding pastor, Harvest Church

Shane Bishop's new book, That's Good News, is an easy read, full of encouragement, advice, stories, excellent Bible teaching, and wit. I imagine Shane sitting across a restaurant table with a huge grin, saying, “You can do this too.” And he's right. Shane's not an armchair theologian; he is a pastor who has built a Jesus-loving church by making the message of salvation easy to understand but never watered down.

Ivan Filby, PhD.

Assistant Pastor, Towerview Church, Bangor, Northern Ireland

That’s Good News enters into our current culture with a critical message of hope for an often-intimidated Church. The stories are fun and inspiring, the evidence is convicting, and the tools are incredibly practical. This journey through Jesus’ parables equips regular Christians with the power to evangelize in their everyday life.

Ted Bryant

Lead pastor, Granger Community Church

Shane walks what he talks on the all-important subject of evangelism. This practical manual will prove a blessing to Christians who often feel intimidated and ill-equipped to share their faith in Jesus. Although Shane has built a large congregation, these principles are transferable to congregations of all sizes. I am excited to anticipate all the people who will find hope in the name of Jesus through the influence of this study.

Rev. Dr. Chris Ritter

Directing Pastor, First Methodist Church, Geneseo, Illinois

For His followers, telling others about Jesus ought to be the most natural conversation in the world. That's Good News makes us believe that we actually can have those conversations. With his very natural wit and ability to connect, Shane Bishop encourages those of us who have believed for too long that evangelism is someone else's gift. If the idea of evangelism has scared us away from the practice, Shane's practical tips coax us back into the game with new passion. This is an essential book for every follower of Jesus!
