However, there are currently around 3.2 billion people today who don't have access to the gospel.

In this message, recently given at the Together for the Gospel Conference, David Platt, through the lens of Scripture, urges us to consider how we might work for the spread of the gospel to the hardest to reach people in places.

This is the Radical with David Platt podcast. Here is David with a message titled, coming together for the sake of those without the gospel.

So my title is come together for the sake of those without the gospel, and I've got a lot to cover and a little bit of time.
