| Summary |
"The Personal Touch" by J. Wilbur Chapman is a Christian non-fiction work written during the early 20th century. The book focuses on the importance of personal interactions in the context of evangelism and soul-winning, illustrating how individual connections can lead others to Christ. The author draws on his own life experiences and biblical teachings to emphasize that personal influence is fundamental in leading others to faith. The opening of the work outlines the foundational principles behind Chapman's belief in the power of personal touch. He reflects on his own upbringing, highlighting the significant impact of his mother and his Sunday School teacher on his spiritual journey. Chapman recounts pivotal moments from his childhood and early adult life where the gentle personal approaches of influential figures around him shaped his faith and led him to a deeper understanding of Christian commitment. He sets the stage for discussing more broadly how every believer has a role to play in soul-winning, urging readers to engage thoughtfully and compassionately with those around them.
