When they won't even hear you out, because of all the mental roadblocks they've built up, it's even harder. In Prepare the Way, Karlo Broussard helps you tackle that essential first step to apologetics and evangelization: getting people to listen with an open mind. So many in our culture today are trapped behind mental, moral, and personal obstacles that prevent them from even glimpsing Godor considering the claims of Christ and the Church. They may be earnestly seeking truth but infected with relativism. They may be otherwise open to the Good News but think that Christianity is only for people who reject science and hate women. Even our best witness can bounce right off folks like these if we don't prepare the way first, breaking down the barriers and leaving minds and souls free to encounter the truth. So Karlo gives you not just evidence and arguments but step-by step strategies, based on asking the right questions, that you can use along with prayer and gentle charity to help them overcome their obstacles and make a straight path for the Lord.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 168357074X\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: BVV.168357074X.A\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Acceptable\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Karlo Broussard\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: The item is very worn but is perfectly usable.
