Hijacking "Unreached"
Unevangelized or Unreached: Why the Difference Matters
Ignorance is bliss but it can also be deadly.

It is a term that has been used more and more in the Christian subculture to validate missional status quo rather than raise the alarm for people groups who are entirely cut off from the gospel.

Namely, what does it mean to reach the nations?

If the command given by Jesus is to make disciples of all nations (or ethnic groups), then common sense would tell us our job is to find those nations (ethnic groups) that have not been discipled (taught to be followers of Christ). The vast majority of these unreached people live in an area of the world nicknamed the "10/40 window."
