Describe the Organization's Program Activity:
Part 3 - Line 4a
MOBILE TECHNOLOGY OUTREACH GOTANDEM IS A MOBILE, DAILY DISCIPLESHIP EXPERIENCE THAT PROVIDES PERSONALIZED BIBLICAL CONTENT DIRECTLY THROUGH ANDROID OR IOS MOBILE APPLICATIONS OR EMAIL. OVER THE PAST SIX YEARS, GOTANDEM HAS IMPACTED THE LIVES OF MORE THAN 450,000 USERS. WHILE THE BREADTH OF SUCH OUTREACH IS ENCOURAGING, WHAT IS REALLY EXCITING IS THE BASE OF 30,000 USERS WHO ARE FOCUSED ON DAILY SPIRITUAL GROWTH AND BIBLICAL DISCIPLESHIP. FOR THOSE INVOLVED IN THE APP FOR AT LEAST 6 WEEKS, EXAMPLES OF LIFE CHANGES ARE 55% EXPERIENCE LESS STRUGGLE WITH DESTRUCTIVE THOUGHTS, 51% HAVE LESS STRUGGLE WITH BEING SPIRITUALLY STALLED, AND 41% STRUGGLE LESS WITH LUST/PORNOGRAPHY. ALONG WITH THESE DECREASES IN UNWANTED BEHAVIOR, PEOPLE WHO ENGAGE WITH THE BIBLE AT THE POWER OF 4 LEVEL ARE MORE THAN TWICE AS LIKELY TO SHARE FAITH WITH OR DISCIPLE OTHERS AND MORE THAN FOUR TIMES MORE LIKELY TO GIVE TO CHURCH. FOR THOSE IN THE APP FOR AT LEAST 12 WEEKS, IT HAS SUCCESSFULLY MOVED OVER 80% WITH NO WEEKLY BIBLE ENGAGEMENT TO NOW ENGAGING THE BIBLE 4 OR MORE TIMES PER WEEK. THROUGH SCIENTIFICALLY SIGNIFICANT RESEARCH, THIS "POWER OF 4" GOAL IS TRANSFORMATIONAL. THE LIFE OF SOMEONE WHO ENGAGES SCRIPTURE 4 OR MORE DAYS PER WEEK LOOKS RADICALLY DIFFERENT FROM THE LIFE OF SOMEONE WHO DOES NOT. IN FACT, THE LIVES OF CHRISTIANS WHO DO NOT ENGAGE THE BIBLE MOST DAYS OF THE WEEK ARE STATISTICALLY THE SAME AS THE LIVES OF NON-BELIEVERS.
