Results: The Malaysian Church Survey 2009

Chee Ling joined me in the effort to collate more church data from our friends and acquaintances for use in our TEE assignment. The joint effort has paid off as we have further expanded the survey to cover 32 churches!

It took about a month to get it all in – it included sending out many, many emails, printing hard copies that Chee Ling handed out, emails and calls to remind, more emails and calls to verify some of the data – it was hard work. A big thank you to those who have been so kind as to acquiesce to our request for information, your time and effort is much, much appreciated.

I have reproduced the results here in PNG. Click to enlarge.


I have been studying the results as I was collating the data. It is quite interesting. What can you conclude from the results; other than the fact that the larger the church the lesser the prayer meeting attendance and churches with a CG-format bible study has a higher bible study attendance?

    I think large churches are CG dominated, and they are not expected to attend separate prayer meeting, as customary pratice...true?

    CG with bible study, has higher attendants...? means that, bible study attract people? if so, thats encouraging..

    they are, even though they have CG, they still hold corporate PM.

    CG with bible study, has higher attendants
    I don't mean exactly that. I mean that comparing church which do not have CG and churches that use CG as a tool for bible study, attendance will be there.
