Is it catching?

Craig Whitney of ELI Church Planting talks about the role of relational evangelism in planter effectiveness:
“One of the four characteristics the ELI measures [in church planters] is relational evangelism. One of the things we asked in our research was what percentage of those attending a new church were previously un-churched. We discovered that the higher the ISA score in relational evangelism the higher the percentage of un-churched people in a new church – and this relationship was statistically significant.”
