In a world where many people no longer walk through the church door on their own, how do we help them encounter Jesus?

Drawing on decades of parish ministry, evangelization leadership, and formation work with the Catherine of Siena Institute, Katherine R. Coolidge offers a hopeful, field-tested guide for Catholics who want to reach out to others with authentic love.

Bring Them to Jesus moves beyond programs and impersonal invitations to show how trust, friendship, prayer, mercy, and everyday conversations can become bridges to faith. Filled with compelling real-life stories, current research, and practical tools, this book equips readers to recognize where people are spiritually and to take the next faithful step alongside them.

Discover how to build trust with seekers, listen for the movements of grace, have meaningful spiritual conversations, discern charisms, and turn works of mercy into living witnesses to Christ.

This is a practical handbook for every baptized person called to bring others not just to church, but to Jesus.
