Programs and results
What we aim to solve
There are now 4.3 billion individuals using the Internet. This represents one-half of the world's population. We must view the “Internet" as a mission field, “Internet Users" as a people group, “Globalism" as a world system, and “Global Individuality" as a new force in world missions.

Charting impact
Four powerful questions that require reflection about what really matters - results.
What is the organization aiming to accomplish?
Network211 embraces the challenge of Internet Global Evangelism by leveraging the Internet as a tool of the Gospel for evangelism, discipleship, and to get individuals into local churches around the world.
What are the organization's key strategies for making this happen?
Network211's Internet ministry is more than a web site, or even a collection of web sites. It offers an online community, an environment, where individuals gather to interact, learn, and invest in others. This is the new marketplace for social interaction, business, news, and entertainment. Interaction in Network211's communities include the following:
a. Network211 engages individuals online with personal “Journey" and takes them from “searches to churches."
b. Network211 presents is a personal interaction in evangelism, offers online discipleship, and directs individuals to local churches in nations where one can worship openly.
c. Network211 offers “Journey Online" (formerly called, “Global Christian Center") to minister and disciple individuals online who are in locations closed to the Gospel.
d. The “Journey" blesses the individual and “searches to churches" utilizes believers worldwide on the grassroots level as follow up 1-2-1 Connectors and builds national churches.
What are the organization's capabilities for doing this?
Network211 ministers to over one-half a million individuals each month and has presented the Gospel to over 33.8 million people in the last 10 years. Evangelism must have a personal component, discipleship follow up, and take people to a local church. Network211 offers this in their “Journey": search, present, connect, grow, and belong. Our teams interact with those who write to us with a prayer, lead them to further online content, and direct them to a local church. There needs to be a pipeline that takes people from evangelism to the local church. Network211's “Journey" takes individuals from “searches to churches." Global evangelism needs to involve local believers from around the world and bless the national church. Network211's “1-2-1 Connector" follow up teams are comprised of believers around the world and they seek to get individuals into local churches. There needs to be regular updates as to the effectiveness of the ministry.
What have they accomplished so far and what's next?
Network211 ministers to over one-half a million individuals each month and has presented the Gospel to over 33.8 million people in the last 10 years. The plan is to continue to build our effectiveness and reach over 1 billion people with a presentation of the Gospel by 2035.
