Evangelism in Japan

[Gregory Matthews]

1)  Decide to hold a nation-wide evangelistic series.

2)  Decide to hold this series of meetings in 120 locations.

3)  Set a national baptismal goal for the entire evangelstic series of 100 baptisms.

3)  Actually baptize 70 people at the end of the series, with some other potential candidates for the future.

I saw the article differently:

*  Japan is a distinct culture in which the SDA denomination has  not learned  how to approach with evangelism.

*  In Japan, public evangelism is not an effective manner in reaching people.

*  The evangelistic goals were intended to be somewhat realistic.
