This is a pretty cool video on spiritual multiplication.
It's why we do what we do.
Kelvin: A Spiritual Multiplication Story from Rick James on Vimeo.
If Whitney and I each shared the gospel and saw 2 people come to faith each year for 32 years we would have 64 new brothers and sisters in Christ.
2 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 2
= 64
But if each one of us shared the gospel and saw 2 people come to faith and then disciples them to share the gospel and they each saw 2 people come to faith and disciples them to do the same and so on... Then....
2 ^ 32
= 4294967296
Beginning with only two persons and using this simple, continuous cycle of discipling, or spiritual multiplication, the entire world could be totally evangelized and saturated with the gospel in only thirty-two subsequent steps because two, multiplied by itself thirty-two times, equals the population of the world!

Amazing!
So the point is to say, share the gospel wide and far and then disciple those that come to faith to do likewise. Just as 2nd Timothy 2:2 commands us:
and what you have heard from me in the presence of many witnesses entrust to faithful men who will be able to teach others also.
