|  | Title: Additional Churches Needed Per Province
Author: Martin, Dwight
Description: "The purple line in the middle shows the national average for Percentage Christian which is 0.60 percent. Provinces listed above the purple line have a Percentage Christian that is greater than the national average. Provinces listed below the line have a Percentage Christian less than the national average. If your goal is to plant churches in provinces where there is the greatest need for churches you would plant churches in the provinces listed towards the right edge of the graph. The province of Bangkok has the greatest need for churches by a large margin. The next five provinces after Bangkok are: Nakhon Ratchasima Ubon Ratchathani Khon Kaen Buri Ram Udon Thani If your calling is to evangelize and make disciples in locations where there are very few Christians than you would consider serving in the provinces listed towards the bottom of the graph. The six provinces with the fewest Christians as a percentage of the population are: Narathiwat Pattani Samut Songkhram Nakhon Nayok Lop Buri Yala Finally, you may want to consider working in a province where there is a great need for churches as well as having few Christians. In this case you would look for a province located in the right bottom corner of the graph. Provinces to consider would be Surin Si Sa Ket Nakhon Si Thammarat Ubon Ratchathani Nakhon Ratchasima Please pray that God would send laborers to these needed areas."

| | Title: Conversion Growth of Protestant Churches in Thailand
Author: Visser, Marten
Description: This thesis is a must read for every missionary who wants to understand the Body of Christ in Thailand. It is the most comprehensive overview of the Thai church written since Alex Smith published "Siamese Gold: the Church in Thailand" in 1982. This study is a statistical analysis of hypotheses about conversion and church growth, and therefore takes the study of church growth one step further than is usually done in missiological studies.

| | Title: The Importance of Printed Media
Author: Visser, Marten
Description: 60% of the converts said that printed media played a role in their conversion. 17% mentioned an evangelistic tract. For every positive mention I ever heard about the evangelistic value of tracts, I am sure I heard at least ten negative ones in my life. Yet in Thailand evangelistic tracts were influential in the conversion of almost twice as many people as radio and television combined!
