I think of my book as an unabridged Bible tract. Approximately 40 percent of it is Scripture. Unlike the pocket "pray the Romans road" versions, I tried to invest more explanation into those verses which point us to salvation. I give my book out to cult members that knock on my front door, co-workers, and neighbors who are atheists or come from other religions, and others in my life who do not profess Christ as their Savior.
