McIntosh on Targeted Outreach

“‘Everyone Welcome’ is often seen on signs in front of churches. However, churches that try to reach everyone often end up reaching no one, or at least very few for Christ. In contrast, churches that are effectively reaching people for Christ have a well-defined target group.”

– Dr. Gary L. McIntosh, internationally known professor of Christian Ministry and Leadership combining a thorough knowledge of how churches grow with a desire to see people saved and assimilated into local churches
February 9, 1947 – present
