About this ebook

The authors of the popular Jim and Casper Go to Church are back! An unlikely friendship began when former pastor Jim Henderson brought atheist Matt Casper with him to visit a series of churches and give his honest feedback on the services. Since then, Casper has spent a lot of time deeply engaging with Jim and other Christians. And the burning question on everyone's minds is whether Casper has been saved. In Saving Casper, Jim and Casper engage in a new conversation about that question. Most Christians have friends like Casper—people who've heard the gospel but still say no—so what happens next? Jim and Casper reveal the surprising answers to questions like: What can an atheist teach us about how to share God with those who don't believe? What have well-meaning Christians said to Casper that has helped—or hurt—their cause? What, if anything, might bring Casper and other nonbelievers to faith . . . and why does Casper say he's closer to God now than ever before? Saving Casper is a groundbreaking, game-changing look at evangelism and the "conversion conversation."

About the author

Jim is fascinated with the power of listening. He invites people to eavesdrop on his interviews with Outsiders of all stripes to hear what they think about spiritual matters. These conversations motivated Jim to write a number of books, including Jim and Casper Go to Church (with Matt Casper), a book that documents the journey of a Christian and an atheist visiting a variety of churches together. His production company, Jim Henderson Presents creates live events designed to Take Jesus Public. Jim holds a D. Min in transformational leadership and has been featured in The Wall Street Journal, USA Today, Fox Television, and This American Life with Ira Glass.

Matt Casper has had more than fifty jobs. One of which is writing books. Jim & Casper Go to Church was his first full-length effort. Saving Casper is his second. He is also a singer/guitar-slinger, a marketer, a halfway decent cook, and a devoted, doting father to two delightful children. And Matt enjoys starting sentences with conjunctions and writing about himself in the third person.
