This
book is intended for both ministers and laymen. It will be of help to the
minister in suggesting to him how to make full proof of his own ministry and
how to get his people to work. It will be of help to laymen in pointing out to
them many fields of fruitful labor for Christ.
The Church of Christ is full of people who wish to work for their
Master but do not know how. This book is intended to tell them how. It contains
no untried theories, but describes many methods of work that have been put to
the test of actual experiment and have succeeded. As far as known there is no
other book that covers the same field. For years it has been upon my heart to
write this book, and I have been asked again and again to do so. But I have
never found time until now. May it be used of God to the conversion of
thousands to Christ.
