Unlocking the door is not another course on how to explain the gospel. Rather, it provides the reader with a wealth of ideas on how we can get alongside non-Christians in the first place.
The book argues that few of us have meaningful friendships with people from outside the church and also suggests that in today’s culture, people are increasingly alienated by church and all they feel it represents. In reaction to this, the authors offer us detailed suggestions, mainly aimed at women, for getting to know people in our ‘circle of influence’. Whether it is organising a chocolate party or starting a film group, practicalities are spelt out and useful addresses are given.
