3. Today's Global Targets

In order to simplify matters, we at GEM-WERC segment the whole world by two questions: first, have you heard of Jesus? and second, are you a Christian? In this way, every ethnic group, city, language, province, country and region of the world can be divided into one of three categories: World A, the unevangelized; World B, the evangelized non-Christian; and World C, the Christian.

A. Unevangelized B. Evangelized
Non-Christian		 C. Christian
38 countries
1.6 billion people
27% of global population
12% of global income
11% of all telephones
13% of all TV sets
3% of all computers 		59 countries
2.4 billion people
40% of global population
35% of global income
28% of all telephones
35% of all TV sets
23% of all computers 		141 countries
2.0 billion people
33% of global population
53% of global income
61% of all telephones
47% of all TV sets
74% of all computers


Christians spend:
99.9% of income on themselves
0.09% on World B
0.01% on World A

In the case of a country, city, people group, language, etc.,
World A means < 50% evangelized
World B means >= 50% evangelized, < 60% Christian
World C means >= 60% Christian
