Measuring Langham’s Impact

Numbers rarely tell the whole story, but yet they often augment narratives with fascinating details. For instance, many folks recall the account of how Jesus multiplied the loaves and fishes, often referred to as the feeding of the 5,000. The Bible includes a “headcount” because the number of people fed was an essential part of understanding God’s power at work!

Similarly, as a ministry, Langham keeps a close eye on the number of people being impacted by our work, along with other key metrics. To assist with this process, we look to an external agency, Excellence in Giving, which has designed the research methodology, collects and analyzes the data — and helps us evaluate and assess the impact of Langham’s work around the world.

In all honesty, when we look at the research data, we stand in awe at God’s gracious power! And we invite YOU to join us in giving thanks to the Lord for what He has done!
