sbc_and_reformed, For the most part, I thought it is nicely put. However, there are a couple of items which I think need your attention: We must be “born again,” meaning we surrender our lives fully to God and allow Christ to be our personal Lord and Savior. We do this by calling out to God in prayer. Actually being "born again" is something that is totally alien from a sinner's experience and precedes and is the origin of spiritual life. Perhaps you have confused "regeneration" (being born again) with "conversion"? (cf. Jh 1:12, 13). I see you list Josh McDowell's Evidence Demands a Verdict as selected reading. Personally, I find that book wanting on several accounts, but one in particular, at least in the edition I have, is that it includes the "Four Spiritual Laws" in the back of the book. McDowell is an Arminian and therefore his "gospel" is unbiblical and unacceptable to me as a Calvinist. Thus, I would not recommend this book to unbelievers or new believers. For my own summary of what I believe should be included in a Gospel presentation, see here: A Gospel SummaryIn His Grace,
