Helping You Understand, Embrace, Hold on to, and Share the Gospel Effectively.
About Us
Sharing the gospel can be difficult. Where do you start? Good Soil equips you to share your faith through seeing Christ in all of Scripture.
Good Soil began in 2005 as a ministry of ABWE to equip missionaries for worldview-relevant evangelism and discipleship in a broad range of cross-cultural settings. Since then, Good Soil trainings and resources have expanded to impact pastors and other church leaders, national ministry workers across the world, and everyday believers in North America. Now, you can learn personal evangelism using the methods employed by experienced missionaries across the world—pointing the lost to Christ as he appears on the pages of Scripture from Genesis to Revelation.
