Out of the Comfort Zone: The Authorized Autobiography
by
Ray Comfort
Most of us have our own "comfort zone," the place where we feel safe and satisfied. However, circumstances often drive us out from that area in which we feel most comfortable. Such was the case when Ray Comfort found himself being taken 7,000 miles from his homeland in New Zealand, to speak to the daunting residents of the most dangerous part of Los Angeles, California. Ma

I started this late at night till three in the morning and then the next morning woke up to finish it. For those of you who know the evangelist Ray Comfort, this autobiography is quite encouraging and will stir the readers to be more zealous to evangelize with the model that Ray Comfort is. He tells about his childhood love for surfing, being "successful" at an early age and finally find Jesus in his native country of New Zealand. His stories of his early days of serving God was enjoyable for me

If you enjoy autobiographies - especially those that are written by Christians who are living lives that the Bible commands us to live, then you'll enjoy this quick read by Ray Comfort.
It shares his testimony from his days back in New Zealand when he "believed" in God, to the surfing trip he was on when his friend sat up all night answering questions from him. With details of his conversion, first publishing efforts and eventual move to Los Angeles, complete with an account of his time Open Air ...more

This is a great book. Ray Comfort is a trip, in a good way. I was surprised to read of his encounter with a demon-possessed person, and the authority he exercised over it. It's rare to see a great apologist/intellectual handle themselves during a demonic encounter like Ray did. Usually apologists and intellectuals of Ray's caliber are only efficient with expounding doctrine, but not Ray. Yes, he can expound scripture with the best of them, but he also knows how to bind demons too, and send them

A solid biography of itinerant evangelist, Ray Comfort, from his conversion in New Zealand to his establishment of Living Waters Ministry in Southern California. Plenty of great stories about preaching on the streets of Los Angeles. Mr. Comfort is a bold witness!
This was a good read. I was a bit bothered by Comfort's reliance on feelings and impressions and emotions to determine God's particular will in any given question, but that aside, I thoroughly enjoyed the book! His humor is quite fun too!
Ray pulls back the veil of his life to reveal how the Lord led him to begin one of the most impacting ministries of our day.
This is Ray's story! I felt like the was Hell's Best Kept Secret with inner city clothes on. A must read for all, especially those in urban ministry.
This book changed my walk with the Lord. A great read that will encourage you to break out of your own comfort zone.
Ray's a great guy, and here's his biography. His passion for people and the gospel is inspiring.
Probably the fastest book I ever read... I couldn't put it down.
Intersting book on Ray Comfort's witnessing stories.
Loved learning about one of my favorite soulwinners!
