2.3 Billion Young People Need to Know Jesus!
The overwhelming majority of trained younger generation leaders live in the United States. Yet an overwhelming percentage of the younger generation—89% of them—live outside of the United States in developing countries. There are approximately 1.4 billion of the younger generation living in Asia, 500 million in Africa/Middle East, 300 million in the Americas, and 100 million in Europe. Among the churches in the U.S., 1 youth leader serves every 600 teens—and that’s 97% of youth ministry leaders worldwide. Yet in the rest of the world only 1 youth leader serves every 120,000 teens. Therefore, the significant need exists GLOBALLY to equip as many younger generation leaders as possible to reach and disciple the 2.3 billion young people who do not know Jesus.
