2. “100 year ago we sent missionaries to the nations to look
for the cities. Today you go to the cities and you find the
nations" Dr. Ray Bakke
“Diaspora missiology may well be the most important
undigested reality in missions thinking today." Dr. Ralph
Winter
“one of the greatest ironies in missions today is the fact
that although we have a good understanding of the
evangelical status of many of the world’s peoples in other
nations, for the most part, we are ignorant regarding the
evangelical status of the peoples of the world living in our
backyards.” Dr. J.D. Payne
3. Globalization, Urbanization and Migration is changing the world
Migration is taken place in every nation of the world. However
certain regions have higher concentrations than others.
The USA is the #1 destination of migrants from around the world,
with over 42 million recent migrants now in USA.
There are now 8 U.S. cities with a foreign born population of 1
million
The most recent migration is coming from many places of the
world considered “Unreached”
There may be as many as 360 “Unreached People Groups” in the
U.S. representing a population of over 20 million
4. In the unevangelized world, there are 20,500 full-time Christian
workers and 10,200 foreign missionaries attempting to reach an
Unengaged and Unreached population of over 2.9 billion people who
are resistant to the Gospel so how can we better reach them?
There are 100 million Evangelical Christians in the “evanglelized” U.S.,
with 20 million people from Unengaged & Unreached People Groups
new to America - many of whom are open to hearing the Gospel –
but do we know they are here?
Should we focus on getting “missionaries” to the “unevangelized
world” to reach UPGs or do we focus on getting “missionaries” into
our cities to reach UPGs from the “unevangelized world?”
