Nicky Gumbel, in The Heart of Revival, writes: ‘It is estimated that 170 million Christians are committed to praying every day for revival. Already the church is growing faster than ever before and Christianity is gaining more adherents than any other religion. Indeed, it is growing three times the rate of the population explosion. More Muslims in Iran have come to know Christ over the past ten years than during the previous thousand years. In Africa, 20,000 people a day are becoming Christians. Some estimate that there may be as many as 100 million Christians in China alone.’
