How do you follow up with someone you met at the park, shared the gospel with at a coffee shop, or connected with through homeless ministry — and make sure the conversation doesn't end there? Take Root is a purpose-built evangelism and discipleship CRM that helps churches, missionaries, and individual believers track the people they're ministering to and the conversations they're having.^1
With Take Root, you can create teams (like a church outreach team), record actions (conversations, visits, messages, notes), set follow-up reminders, and share contacts securely with teammates. The app works well offline — critical for missionaries and street ministry — and includes reporting features so teams can see how many gospel conversations are happening and hold each other accountable.^1 Private notes let you keep personal reflections separate from shared team data.^2

Why Christians Love It"My wife met a family at a playground and invited them to church. They didn't come the first time. She followed up a week later — and that entire family started coming to church faithfully. The father got free from drugs, both parents want to get baptized, and they've committed to get married. All because she followed up on the conversation." — Rooted Software team^6
