get it and use it!

this one is a winner. but who is surprised by that since it was written by richard peace? holy conversation is a huge help for anyone who wants to live in conversation with god and as a good human partner in his world at the same time.

Don't be offensive!

Holy Conversation is an excellent guidebook to sharing your faith without offending others! My women's group is taking a spiritual journey with this slim volume. We are learning to use ordinary words to express our heart-felt beliefs and to steer clear of language that is loaded with confusion and for many, offense. Richard Peace has addressed a very necessary issue in today's society. Highly recommended!

Group Ministry Pastor

We are using this book as curriculum for our 8 Life Groups. It has been an engaging study. I love how this reviews the Gospel content. It gets our minds wrapped around the essentials. All of us review our stories as well as get prepared to tell THE story. I recommend it wholeheartedly!

Very Helpful Study Gudie

I like how this book is laid out. It is an excellent resource as a group study, and one that would be comfortable in a mainline setting. The study questions will provide great conversation starters and the assignments between weeks will help group members grow confident in their ability to talk about their faith. This book would be excellent for those who have never had to think through their testimony before, or have difficulty expressing the highs and lows of their faith Journey in Christ.
