ABSTRACT:
Reach people where they are. The purpose of this project is to identify, explore, evaluate and recommend practical means of using hunting and fishing as tools of evangelism and discipleship. A review of printed literature reveals little about this subject. Other available information shows effective use of these means for the proposed purposes. The research utilized responses to questionnaires completed by pastors, seminary students, seminary graduates, and outdoor speakers who employ these means. Hunting and fishing are being used effectively for these goals. Practical methods for implementation of these means are explored and presented.
