- Population is 1 billion plus - with only 35,000 Christian workers!
- There are 4,635 separate people groups or tribes.
- There are 14 major languages and 1,600 dialects!
- There are 587,000 villages - and 500,000 of them have no church.
- India is the birthplace of Hinduism, Buddhism, Sikhism, and the home to
dozens more religions and 120 million Muslims.
- 97% of the population is considered poor, and 70% live in crippling poverty.
- 60% of the population cannot read - 700 million do not have television.
- 90% of Christian ministry is carried out in regions already reached with
the gospel.
- A militant anti-Christian government systematically persecutes the Church
and denies believers their constitutional rights.
Although such a gloomy list paints a portrait of challenge, our Life of Christ
film is the answer to evangelism!
- It is presented in 14 major Indian languages with an Indian cast so all
can understand!
- It is taken directly to the villages, with the emphasis on reaching the
unreached.
- It clearly presents the gospel to those who cannot read and reaches those
without TV.
- When first released, our motion picture was a huge box office hit in Andra
Pradesh, so people flock to see it when it is presented for free!
- Dayspring's outreach is one of the most cost-effective evangelistic outreaches
in the world. Every 10 cents you give reaches another soul!
- New congregations of worshippers are readily formed.
- This film dramatically portrays the life-changing message of the Savior
from birth to ascension.
