Great Controversy Distribution in Michigan Leads to More Than 430 Bible Studies

[phkrause]

More than 100 volunteers went door to door to distribute 29,000 copies of The Great Controversy, Thrive magazine, and invitational flyers to the Detroit, Michigan, USA, neighborhoods surrounding five Adventist churches from April 11 to 15. The door-to-door effort resulted in more than 430 Bible study contacts.

The phrase "430 Bible study contacts," is not defined.  It is open to question.

In the past, the mass distribution of The Great Controversy has  been ineffective.  I documented a case which I as recall it cost into 6-figures and resulted in one baptism.

In any case, several examples have had no known baptisms result.

We have much better methods of spending money given for evangelism.

I wonder why we think that the general public will read a book that they will not purchase, in this television age.  Let those who will purchase it do so.
