The 10/40 Window is a rectangular-shaped area
extending from West Africa to East Asia, from ten degrees north to forty
degrees north of the equator. Often called "The Resistant Belt," this
specific region, encompasses the majority of the world's Muslims, Hindus,
and Buddhists - billions of spiritually impoverished souls. |

MORE ON THE
10/40 WINDOW
- Nearly 4 billion people live here,
including 87 percent of the world's poorest of the poor. It is
estimated that 1.6 billion of these people have never had the
chance to hear the Gospel of Jesus Christ - not even once!
- The seat of every major non-Christian
religion - Islam, Buddhism, Hinduism, Animism, Atheism, and
Sikhism - is headquartered in the 10/40 Window.
- In many of the 65 countries represented
in the 10/40 Window, witnessing the Christian Gospel means
death. Truly, the 10/40 Window remains the darkest and most
inhospitable territory to the cause of Christ and represents
the greatest remaining stronghold of Satan.

Some Facts about the 1040 Window |
|
The
core of the unreached people of our world live in a
window that extends from West Africa to East Asia, from
ten degrees north to forty degrees north of the equator.
This region of the world has become known as the 10/40
Window. Incredibly, 97% of the people in the least
evangelized countries live in the 10/40 Window.
The religions of this area are made up of Muslim, Hindu,
Buddhist, Shinto, Folk Religions, and Atheism. Projected
populations by A.D. 2000: 1.1 billion Muslims; 1.0
billion Hindus; and 600 million Buddhists.
This is also the poorest region in the world. Eighty-two
percent of the poorest of the poor live in the 10/40
Window. Over 2.4 billion people, 40% of the world’s
population, live on less than $1.40 per day in the 10/40
Window.
International Gospel Mission and Global Mission
Awareness have answered God’s call to this region. Who
will go with us? Will you? The harvest truly is
plenteous.
