Urban Issues

4 Keys to Successful Urban Outreach

It is common to encounter confusion between urban vs. rural. Traditionally cities tend to be known as urban, while farms tend to be known as rural. Although there are differences between the two there are also similarities as well.

Keys to Successful Urban Outreach Initiatives:

  • Visit the local worship sites
  • As you get to know people, ask them about their religion
  • Read books about the religion
  • Never put down the native religion, only present a positive message of Jesus
