Robert E. Coleman is widely known for his ministry as a disciplemaker and evangelist, and for many years has given leadership to the Billy Graham Center Institute of Evangelism at Wheaton College, along with the International Schools of Evangelism. He is the author of 21 books, including bestseller The Master Plan of Evangelism. Translations of one or more of his books are published in 100 languages. He and his wife, Marietta, reside in Deerfield, Illinois. They have 3 grown children and 7 grandchildren.
Robert Coleman's classis "The Master Plan of Evangelism" is a classic work that had a huge impact on my life and ministry. That book focuses on "how" Jesus made disciples. This book, "The Mind of the Master," attempts to get inside Jesus' head and to discover "why" Jesus made disciples the way he did. Obviously, the two books have much in common. The edition of "The Mind of the Master" I read has an introduction by Lyle Dorsett and a great little study guide by Timothy Beougher.
