Revival

Why would God send revival in the last days? In the Bible, He always gave believers an opportunity to repent, and he often allowed the worst of pagans the opportunity to repent as well (eg. Nineveh).

Whatever Happened to Evangelism?

Mar. 6, 2008 - Evangelist Luis Palau laments the decline of evangelism in the U.S. and encourages Christians to share their faith boldly. Without evangelism, the church cannot grow. He says:

If there is no evangelism, there is no church to deal with the other priorities. Discipleship is obviously a strong, ongoing church priority; but there's no one to disciple if you haven't evangelized in the first place.

Catholic tradition fading in U.S. Evangelical Christianity has become the largest religious tradition in this country

Feb. 27, 2008 - A new survey by the Pew Forum on Religion and Public Life shows that Evangelical Protestants now outnumber Catholics by 26.3 percent (59 million) to 24 percent (54 million) of the population.

One of the fastest-growing groups is Americans unaffiliated with any religion, now at 16 percent, although just 4 percent of the population identified itself as agnostic or atheist. The West Coast shows the highest percentage of nonchurched people.
