#### What is the Engel scale?

The type of tool you'd like to use may depend on how open and/or aware of Christianity the people you're working with are.

The numbering system runs from 0 to 10 with:

0 - meaning the tool is suitable for engaging with someone who has no interest and/or knowledge of the Christian faith.

**10** - meaning that the tool is suited to engaging with someone who is now making a decision to follow Jesus.
