In this book, Joel Beeke investigates how the Puritans proclaimed what God’s Word counsels regarding the salvation of sinners. He describes the preaching of the Puritans (thoroughly biblical, unashamedly doctrinal, experimentally practical, holistically evangelistic, and studiously symmetrical), the primary methods of evangelism (plain preaching and catechetical evangelism), and the inward disposition of the Puritan evangelist (dependent on the Holy Spirit and prayerful).

You can read a wonderful review of this book by David McCrory on his blog, Reformed Puritan.

Also to mention, First Reformed Presbyterian Church of Grand Rapids, MI hosted a conference on Biblical Evangelism. We strongly encourage listening to the message presented by Dr. David Murray professor at Puritan Reformed Theological Seminary. They can be accessed or downloaded at the following links.
