    5% of the world's population lives in the USA and 95% of the christian workers work there


    2/3's of the world live in the 10/40 window but the least amount of missions effort goes to that area of the world


    what happened to "all the world" in Mark 16:15?

    I just posted about this on your other thread, but lots of those countries are closed to foreign missions, so we have to rely on national pastors to carry on the work.

    It IS happening, though it is hard to get reports through due to the persecution.

    There are SBC missionaries in a lot of the countries...but they are not there as "Missionaries" due to the borders being closed.
    It takes creativity to get into some of these countries, and when faithful men and women obey the call to go...God blesses.
