The Time to Reach People Is Now: Seize the Easter Moment
You can reach out to people through a lot of different means, but what is most effective. Well, crazy enough, we decided to find out.
In partnership with the North American Mission Board, we actually asked 15,000 people how open they would be to different methods of outreach.
Where I see this lust for certainty on overdrive is in the conservative portions of the Christian Church, not only in Evangelical Churches but also in Orthodox and Catholic circles as well.
