Preparing for non-Christian religions is more critical than preparing for agnostics/atheists

Most of the world’s Christians are in places where Christians are the majority, and the majority of non-Christians are non-religious (atheist/agnostic).
But in Africa and Asia, where Christians are not the majority, the majority of non-Christians are of non-Christian religions (not atheist/agnostic).

What happened to the unreached this week?
Each Friday I send a newsletter to over 2,400 mission activists, advocates, managers, field workers, and pastors - about what happened among the unreached, and what could happen next. Each issue comes with a curated list of nearly 100 links, and note why each is important. You can get on the list for free.
