According to the Joshua Project, there are over 7,000 Unreached People Groups*, which make up over 40% of the world’s population. That’s a lot of people who need to be connected to Jesus! A great first step is to start praying for Unreached People Groups. Joshua Project has an app, Unreached of the Day, that you can use to pray for a different people group each day. Pray by yourself, with your family, or your community group.
* “An unreached or least-reached people is a people group among which there is no indigenous community of believing Christians with adequate numbers and resources to evangelize this people group without outside assistance.” (Source: joshuaproject.net
