The 52 Challenge

from Rick Warren's Ministry Toolbox
by Diana Davis

Compel them to come in so that my house will be filled. – Luke 14:23b

Amazingly, nine out of 10 unchurched people say they would come to church if they were asked.* Will you be the asker? I dare you to take the "52 Challenge."

Step one: Think of one person you know who doesn't attend church. Only one. Invite that person to your church this Sunday and arrange to meet at the front door. Write their name on Sunday's date in your personal calendar.

Step two: Commit to God that you will repeat that process weekly for one year. Don't know 52 lost people? Don't worry. Just ask for God's direction and watch for one person to invite this week. Suddenly, you'll notice masses of lost people around you.
