Thinking about the following statement:
"...70% of new Christians came to church as a result of a personal invitation. And that does not even broach the retention issue, which most churches struggle with. Only 20% of those that visit church visit again. ...stats that say seven impressions (a card, a personal visit, a personal connection on Sunday AM, etc. in combination) must be made within the first two weeks after a visitor comes for the first time, else they won't stay long term."
What do you think? What makes people return to church? What does it take?
