shocking numbers

a friend in singapore compiled these numbers (he has a PhD in missiology)

27% of the people in the world live beyond the gospel. These are the unreached people of the world who most likely have never heard the gospel a single time from someone. For them it is as if Christ never came. Surely these people are the priority for Great Commission Christians...

Yet for every $10,000 in personal income the average Christian gives 1 penny to reach these people. Out of every 10,000 professional Christian ministers, only 100 are serving in cross-cultural missions and only 2 are serving among the 27% of the world that is unreached!
