Evangelism and the Sovereignty of God by J. I. Packer explores the relationship between God's control over all things and the Christian duty to evangelise. The book examines whether recognising God's sovereignty makes evangelism unnecessary or irrelevant, ultimately arguing that true understanding of God's rule inspires and strengthens the call to share the gospel.

If God is in control of everything, can Christians sit back and not bother to evangelise? Or does active evangelism imply that God is not really sovereign at all?

In this classic study, J. I. Packer shows how false both these attitudes are. In a careful review of the biblical evidence, he demonstrates how a right understanding of God's sovereignty is not so much a barrier to evangelism as an incentive and powerful support for it.
