I think Pilgrim is correct: The US is probably one of the hardest places to proclaim the gospel. And I would argue that one of the most difficult objects of evangelism is the the typical, Churched person. Simply because these folks think they have been saved due in part to having walked an aisle or made some other decisional response to "inviting Jesus into their hearts." When you inform them that they haven't warmed a pew in Church for nearly 10 years since this decisional turning point, and that their personal life is no where near even being conformed to Christ, they become indignant and claim you are being judgmental. It takes steeled patience to involve yourself with these kind of folks and they are ubiquitous in our evangelical community of this fair nation.
