ONE CHURCH CONSULTANT SAYS: “Most Christians don’t have a clue to what the mission of the church is…
Up to 80 percent of church members believe that the primary purpose of the church is to provide a place of fellowship where Christians can share God’s love with one another rather than reach out to those who are unchurched…”
…According to researcher George Barna, “Nine out of ten preachers call their church ‘evangelistic.’ However, less than one of of three church attenders has shared his or her faith in Christ with a non-Christian within the past twelve months…” Tom Clegg, Warren Bird, “Discovering What We All Have in Common,”Missing in America, 87
“How I kept back nothing that was helpful, but proclaimed it to you, and taught you publicly and from house to house.” Acts 20.20
