Unreached People Group : ??

When you hear someone say "unreached people groups" what comes to mind?

Personally, I think of people living in the mountains in India, people in Afghanistan, kids in the ghetto...but never people that sit right next to me in orchestra. Sure, they're lost, and I want so badly for them to have the same kind of hope and love that I have thanks to God, but I've never grouped them together.

Imagine that list of unreached people groups in the book of life, the groups that need be crossed out one by one, as we share Jesus, so that He can come back.

Imagine that somewhere on that list it says:

Unreached people group: Classical Musicians.

It seems weird...surely they've heard...but I am positive that if they have, they did not understand, or it wasn't yet God's time. Because as a musician, I know that music is one of the biggest ways one can see God in today's culture, and anyone who has glimpsed and even partially understood what the creator has done for them will not be able to perform without constantly striving to glorify God.

This article was what caused me to start thinking about my fellow musicians in this way, not as people who have rejected God, but maybe as individuals who haven't been cared for, haven't heard the truth, and haven't understood...just like any other unreached people group in this world.

Yeah...no pressure or anything but I'm totally in contact with an unreached people group every single day! It's a real and out there opportunity to be really out of my comfort zone.

sure, I've gone to Trinidad, Alabama and Urban Promise...but not one of those places for a week was half as hard to be in as the world that a music major has to live in...
