For years, I’ve contended that the best mission field is the workplace. From an evangelistic viewpoint, the importance of the workplace is rising dramatically.
According to the Christian Post, from 1937 until the 1980s, about 70% of Americans said they were members of a church. However, a recent Gallup poll reveals that church participation has declined to 30%.
Since the 18-29 year olds surveyed are only at 22% for church attendance, I believe it becomes even more urgent for Christians to act like Christians in their workplace.
