2022 Global Training Network Leadership Gathering

Whenever I meet a believer in Christ who is discouraged with what they are seeing here in the West (primarily North America) in terms of spiritual decline, I like to encourage them with what God is doing around the world. And it is huge!
 
Here are a few stats on the growth of Christianity throughout Asia, Africa, and Latin America:

77,000 people are coming to Christ
every day around the world.
70,000 are in the global south
[primarily Africa, Asia, Latin America].
7,000 are in the global north
[primarily North America and Europe].

“True Christianity has grown by more than 300 million believers in the past ten years. About 10 million of these new Christians are from North America and Europe, and the rest – 290 million – are from developing countries like Nigeria, Argentina, India and China.”

“Africa is critical for the future of global Christianity. In the next 10 years, Africa will likely grow to have the most Christians of any continent: 700 million.”

Last week, we enjoyed another great Leadership Gathering with 120+ (of our 160+) Global Training Network staff in Scottsdale, Arizona (picture above) … who traveled in from all across the country and around the world. Our staff are some of the most highly experienced, well-educated, and yet humble, gracious, kind, and generous-hearted people I’ve ever had the privilege to work with (1 Corinthians 3:6-9).
