Communication

J.P. Morgan released its 2008 Global Internet Snapshot this morning.

Here are some highlights:

"Cell phones: For every 100 U.S. citizens, 77 have a cell phone calling plan. In Italy and Hong Kong, there are 135 mobile subscriptions for every 100 people. The global average? Only 41 out of every 100 citizens subscribe to cell phone service. Mobile phone users are growing at an annual rate of 27%... Indian cell phone users grew by 84% last year alone.

Computers: For every 100 Americans, there are 80 PCs. Global PC ownership is a humble 13 for every 100. Internet: 1.3 billion people now have reliable access to the Internet, thanks to an annual growth rate of over 20% during the last eight years. Yet global Internet advertisers spent only $40 billion last year, 6% of the total estimated worldwide advertising expenditure."

Very interesting!

Americans have the computers. However, in Italy and in Hong Kong there are more cell phones than there are people! Another thing that I caught is that slightly more than 1 out of every 6 people in the world have access to the Internet. That number will grow.

Despite all of this high tech we have not kept pace in communicating with people regarding their spiritual needs!

We have a message of hope . . . it is Jesus Christ!

Actually, He is standing by to receive communication from you . . . right now!

It's your call!
