Know the World So God Can Be Known: Global Trends for Digital Missionaries
Matthew Niermann brings global-scale demographic data to challenge digital missionaries to move beyond tools and platforms and deeply understand who they are reaching. From the inversion of Christianity's geographic center to the rise of a 2.1-billion-person new middle class, an epidemic of loneliness among youth, and a growing isolated elderly population, the data reveals a world uniquely ripe for digital ministry. The conclusion is clear: digital missionaries are no longer fringe—they are now core to the Great Commission.
