The 100 Largest Unreached People Groups add up to over 1.7 billion people. That number seems overwhelming until we remember that all of the nations are like a "drop of a bucket" and "small dust" to God. By God's grace, we've got the power at our disposal to reach the unreached with the riches of Christ. All that we need to do is make it a priority.
