Non-believers take an average of 7.6 times before they receive the gospel.


75 to 90% of new believers come to Christ through a friend who explained the gospel in a one to one basis to them. Only 17% of conversions are the result of a rally or church service.

Only 5 to 10% of an average church shares their faith in one year. But Jesus showed us in John 4:39 that when we seize opportunities to share our faith fully, they can grow into chain reactions.

1 Peter 3:15 says Christians should not just throw hints abut their faith but need to share enough information about their faith to allow the Holy Spirit to effect a change of heart.


We must be prepared to share the whole gospel. Every presentation is a seed that may eventually breed fruit.
