      9. Drawing the Net

   7. Witnessing Tools

3. Critical Evaluation

   1. Dr. Kane presents a wealth of pertinent information on soul winning with an excellent introduction and outset but his structure breaks down in the middle and there is no 'drawing the net' conclusion.

   2. The Witnessing tools at the conclusion provide an excellent soul winning resource but they should have been incorporated into the book and been embellished with some example from the points of his book.

   3. The book provides excellent and very pertinent information for soul winners and it should have been easy to include an all encompassing conclusion that tied this little gem together.

4. Implications: An exceptional book that needs a revision in its structure to effectively communicate its wealth of information.

Jesus said “Go ye and teach all nations” (Matt) and “preach the gospel to every creature” (Mark) “that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in my name;” (Luke) “as my Father hath sent me, even so send I you” (John); “that ye shall be witnesses unto me.” (Acts)
