Middle East 

While technically part of Asia, the countries of the Middle East may present the greatest challenge to global evangelization. Dominated by Islam, many of the nations of the Middle East are totally intolerant of Christianity. In addition to the Arabic and Jewish blocs, the Turkic bloc, stretching across most of central Asia, presents great opportunities for those who can master difficult languages and customs. The Middle East is always hosting one or more wars, and these sometimes involve western powers, making it difficulty for those representing the kingdom of God to present a witness that is free of the cultural trappings associated with politics.
