Followers of Christ have a clear mandate to take the gospel to their cities and the world. I have a certain affinity toward sub-Saharan Africa. To love another people group or country you need to know it. Therefore, good demographic studies are a must. Here is an interesting talk from Hans Rosling at TED. He talks about the changes in the third world over the last few decades in education, child mortality, economy and life expectancy.

I want to note that one of the greatest global needs continues to be clean water. One of the best ways for Christians to love the world and the global church is to assist with clean water and sanitation.

It is worth you while to check out the TED talks.

You can also download the video for your iPod/iPhone.

Tell the gospel.
Live the gospel.
