PROGRESS COMPARED TO 1900
CHRISTIANITY

Factoid: Compared to 1900, today we: – have nine times more churches; – distribute almost eleven times more Bibles; – have five times more vocational Christian workers; – have nearly seven times more missionaries; – have one hundred and sixty times more Christian books; – spend thirty-six times more hours evangelizing; – have cut the proportion of unevangelized people in the world in half; – are broadcasting the Great Good News of Jesus Christ via television, radio, and the Internet, and the media to every city, county, country, and continent; and – are seeing our young people poised to do a dramatically better job in reaching the world than we have done.
