  2. Our New missional reality “100 year ago we sent missionaries to the nations to look for the cities. Today you go to the cities and you find the nations" Dr. Ray Bakke “Diaspora missiology may well be the most important undigested reality in missions thinking today." Dr. Ralph Winter “one of the greatest ironies in missions today is the fact that although we have a good understanding of the evangelical status of many of the world’s peoples in other nations, for the most part, we are ignorant regarding the evangelical status of the peoples of the world living in our backyards.” Dr. J.D. Payne
