    unreached people in the world after India, China,
    and Malaysia.

  • Over 80 of church plants die prior to one year
    old.
  • Only 17.5 of population attend church on a given
    Sunday.
  • In the 90s there was a 19.4 decline in church
    attendance.
  • Only 28 of people ages 27-37 attend church.

  • Only 1 of evangelical churches are winning the
    unsaved.
  • 90 of all who claim to be a Christian have never
    won a soul.
  • 80 of those who are won to Christ in personal
    witness are won by people who have been saved
    less than one year.
  • 85 of all churches in America are plateaued or
    declining.
  • About 75 of those who profess Christianity are
    not saved, so we must win not only those outside
    the church but also the thousands that are lost
    in the church! Rev. Billy Graham

  • 4,000 churches are started in the U.S.A.
    annually.
  • 3,700 churches are closed in the U.S.A. annually.
  • This gives a net gain of 300 new churches per
    year.
  • 3,205 new churches per year are needed to meet
    population growth.
  • The U.S.A. needs an additional 2,900 churches per
    year or 29,000 additional churches over the next
    decade to just meet the population growth.
