What is My Friendship Connection? |
 My Friendship Connection is the most powerful evangelism tool available, it taps into your most valuable resource, your people. My Friendship Connection is a complete strategy specifically designed to mobilize your church for a great day of outreach AND bring churches together for a common cause. I am sure you agree that we are much stronger when we work together. The sermons, small group lessons and short daily devotionals dovetail together and create a genuine excitement and momentum that will lead to a great day of outreach.
The strength of this strategy is demonstrated in research that clearly tells us that 86% of the people, who trust Christ, come because of the simple invitation of a friend. It is based on the principle found in John Chapter 1 of family reaching family and friends reaching friends. This principle is timeless and will work in any church regardless of your size or location.

"It is with much long awaited anticipation and excitement that I commend this "Friend Day" program to you. I am thrilled that Vernon Brady gave me an opportunity to participate in putting together this material. I think that God will use it in a mighty way in putting evangelism back on the front burner in your church. With 80% of our churches plateaued in America, we need to do all that we can to be faithful to the Great Commission, beginning right here in Jerusalem.
May God bless you mightily as you engage your community, and are challenged by this simple, strategic material that is in your hands."

We recently released a study at LifeWay Research (see www.lifewayresearch.com ) that showed a remarkable openness to spiritual conversations. Among the unchurched, 89% somewhat or strongly agree with the statement "I have at least one close friend who considers himself or herself a Christian." The same group of unchurched, were asked, "If someone wanted to tell me what she or he believed about Christianity, I would be willing to listen." Seventy eight percent agreed. Yes, people are still open to spiritual conversations. Vernon Brady and Elmer Towns provide a new tool to help start those conversations. My Friendship Connection is a great tool to help churches involve their people in reaching their community for Christ." |
