Meet Ahmed. He’s quite the normal young man.
Every day, Ahmed rides his motorcycle through crowded streets to his university where he studies accounting. He hopes his degree will land him a good job to pay off his motorcycle and help support his parents and two sisters.
He wonders about finding a nice girl to marry. He worries about living up to his father’s expectations. He’s afraid of the curses that seem to plague his family.
But more than anything, Ahmed—a Muslim—is afraid of standing before God when he dies.
Islam doesn’t offer good answers for any of Ahmed’s fears. He doesn’t know about Jesus Christ. He doesn’t know any other way to live but in fear.
Ahmed belongs to an unengaged Muslim people group, and there are Muslim men and women like him all over the world, living beyond the reach of the Gospel.
The greatest concentrations of unengaged Muslim people groups are found in these Strategic Regions:
SOUTH ASIA—Full of opportunity and teeming with people, where you’re bound to make lasting friendships with Muslims as you introduce them to our greatest Friend.
NORTHEAST AFRICA—The doors of opportunity are wide open in this impoverished but hospitable region where God is doing something new.
THE CAUCASUS REGION—With over 100 unique languages dispersed across a rugged mountain range straddling Europe and Asia, this diverse region is being prepared by God for a great spiritual harvest.
SOUTHWEST ASIA—Despite decades of political conflict and ethnic strife, this region offers you the chance to discover ancient civilizations and its people’s generous hospitality.
THE ARAB GULF—It’s the birthplace and theological center of Islam and desperately needs faithful people like you to help plant the first local churches among its nearly 100 unengaged Muslim people groups.
SOUTHEAST ASIA—With over ten thousand islands and more than 50 languages, you’ll find abundant opportunities in this region to bless the poor through development and business.
These six regions are home to hundreds of millions of Muslims in need of the Gospel. Imagine the lives that could be eternally changed if someone like you introduces them to Jesus Christ.
