The author organizes this book around a statement from Ellen White: "Christ's method alone will give true success in reaching the people." Samaan uses this insight to develop "the fine art of relational witnessing." He explicates his thesis in six steps: 1. Christ mingled with others, desiring their good. 2. He sympathized with them. 3. He ministered to their needs. 4. He won their confidence. 5. He invited them to follow Him. 6. He promised to make them fishers of people.
The author emphasizes the need to socialize as a productive means of witnessing. Christians who separate themselves do not win people to Christ. An equally important emphasis addresses the necessity of prayer. Prayer has no substitutes; soul saving and intercessory prayer are inseparable. Pastors, in particular, need to reflect on how much they value persistent intercessory prayer in their ministries.
