The Alpha Malaysia Research Team seeks to provide local church leaders with credible thought leadership insights, driven by local market research data. Our hope is that church leaders are enabled to navigate serving through the changing trends and season.


With the implementation of the Movement Control Order since March 2020 in Malaysia, how did churches adapt online? Is faith sharing still relevant? How can churches continue to reach out?

Digital Evangelisation in Malaysia studies how Malaysians engage digitally in sharing of their faith. Inside you will find:

  • Data and snapshot summaries on behaviors of the different church goers
  • Discussion on highlighted behaviors of the different church goers
  • Insights from Rev. Nicky Gumbel, Rev. Miles Toulmin, Dr. Hera Lukman, Dss. Abi McIlrath and other ministry practitioners that shed clear light on what these information means for Christians and their churches
  • Infographics, charts, and other data visualisations

The report also includes a reflection section with discussion questions to help you apply these insights in your own ministry. We hope this report will give you clarity you need to evangelise online.
