LTW Prayer Calendar LIGHT THE WINDOW The 10/40 Window region is home to some of the least reached peoples on earth. So called, because it focuses on an area of the world within and around 10 and 40 degrees latitude, this region represents an incredible win- dow of opportunity for the Church. In this region live 1.6 billion Muslims, 1 billion Hindus and 600 million Buddhists who have little or no understanding of Jesus. The peoples in this region have received the least amount of missionary effort and resources. They have the least access to the gospel and the greatest barriers to cross in accepting Jesus as their savior. Researchers estimate that 3 billion people in this region have yet to hear the gospel in a way they can understand. They speak 4,000 languages and live in thousands of tribes and peoples. Among these least reached peoples, 50,000 will die every day, most of whom never had someone come live among them to share the love of Christ.

The dissertation explores the relationship between literary texts and political power. It specifically focuses on the fifteenth century, which coincides with the rise of the regional sultanate, which, along with the sultanates of Malwa, Deccan, and the kingdoms of Mewad and Marwar, emerged as an important power in the politics of South Asia in this period.
