According
to data collected in the year 2000AD, the percentage of the
population in PNG which is Christian, was as high as 96%1.
In the year 2001AD, the percentage of the population in Austrlia
which identified as Christian was 68%2.
One of my co-workers here at Lae City Mission often remarks that PNG
is likely the most over-evangelised place on the face of the earth.
A
fair question then: What on earth are we here for, when the country
we are sent to, is more Christian than the country that sent us?
