Why The Wonder-Full Week End?
To Reach the Lost!



From Barna Research:

Despite widespread efforts to increase church attendance across the nation, the annual survey of church attendance conducted by The Barna Group shows that one-third of all adults (34%) remain “unchurched.” That proportion has changed little during the past five years. However, because of the nation’s population continuing growth, the number of unchurched adults continues to grow by nearly a million people annually."

Did you read that? Barna tells us that the "unchurched" adults grows by a million, annually! 1,000,000. Annually! The WFWE was created to help YOU and YOUR church reach the "unchurched" and the "lost". Barna continues...

"... the unchurched adults significantly stray from the national norm on other questions. They are only half as likely to firmly believe that the Bible is accurate in all that it teaches (25% agree with that notion); are less likely to possess a biblical view of God (only 46% see Him as the “perfect, all-knowing, all-powerful Creator of the universe” who still rules His creation today); and are less likely to believe that the most important purpose of life is to “love God with all your heart, mind, strength and soul” (63% agree)"

Research PROVES that we still MUST reach the lost, the unchurched. Let us help you create a life changing "transforming" experience. Here are some more SOBERING facts from BARNA about those WHO are CHURCHED:

"Only one out of every four (27%) Mosaics – that is, the generation born after 1983 – had undergone serious faith-driven transformation. That was just half the proportion associated with older adults."

"...The denominational groups most widely affected by faith were Pentecostals, among whom 80% claimed to have been transformed; 79% among non-denominational adherents; and 67% among those aligned with one of the Holiness churches (e.g. Church of the Nazarene, Wesleyan, etc.). In contrast, only half of the people associated with Presbyterian, Lutheran, Episcopal and Methodist churches said they had a transforming faith. The lowest level among the major church groups was among Baptists: just 44% said they had experienced great transformation through their faith. "

In the past 25 years, over 200,000 lives HAVE been transformed by God's word. Let us help your church reach inside and outside your church walls...let's partner together to share God's transforming grace with your community!
