Churches in the United States are facing a crisis. The fact is we are in a battle. And we are in danger of losing.

• 70% of all young adults ages 23-30 have stopped attending church regularly.

• 88 % of children from evangelical churches leave the church shortly after high school graduation.

• For every 10 men in your church...
     9 will have children that will leave the church
     5 will have a serious problem with pornography
     Only 1 has a Biblical worldview

We're at genuine risk of losing biblical Christianity in just one generation. We've been given a wake-up call. The time is now.

As a pastor, you have incredible influence over the people in your congregation. Your encouragement can spur them on to have a dynamic relationship with Jesus Christ. But you can't possibly be there to encourage them every day. Well, we'd like to help!

Researchers in our Center for Bible Engagement have been researching why so many people own Bibles, but rarely read them. Having surveyed over 30,000 people, we have discovered that those who engage in Bible reading 4 or more times per week experience life much differently than those who don't! Indeed, statistics show a much higher level of health and stability despite life's constant challenges.

What are the stats for less than 4 times?
Those who DON'T read at least 4 times a week are much more likely to have:

• marital infidelities
• drug dependencies
• financial crisis
• emotional sicknesses
• many other undesirable behaviors.

Based on the significance of these findings, we decided to create Powered by 4. Powered by 4 is a Bible engagement plan. Taking in God's Word is the power; doing it at least 4 times a week is the plan!

If you decide to encourage your congregation to utilize Powered by 4, we'd like to provide you with some free resources. Download this bulletin insert.
