Matthew 24:14

I recently have been thinking about what it would look like in our lives if we actually followed Matthew 24:14. "The Good News about God's kingdom will be preached in all the world, to every nation. Then the end will come."
As i was thinking on this, the verse Acts 1:8 obviously came to mind. We are to made disciples of all nations.
That being said, I've been thinking about how we really don't get outside our comfort zones to reach the unreached. There are 6,426 unreached people groups in the world. And at the rate we are going, honestly, it's just gonna take way to long for Christ to come back and I don't want to wait that long. We live our lives like we will live forever and yet the truth is we aren't even guaranteed our next breath. Life is short and eternity is at stake!
I've been dwelling on the idea of what if each church each was accountable to reach at least one of these unreached groups. There are thousands of churches in just the United States alone. Let's be proactive! Lets do something, lets share the name of Christ (after all, who are we to keep it to ourselves anyway).Christ didn't die for us so that we could just sit on our couches in our comfort zones.
Isaiah 6:8 "Then I heard the Lord's voice, saying, 'Whom can I send? Who will go for us?' So I said, 'Here I am. Send me!'
