Missions
Spreading a passion for the glory of GodDeclaring His Glory Among the Nations
Here a biblical description of missions:
And I heard the voice of the Lord saying, “Whom shall I send, and who will go for us?” Then I said, “Here I am! Send me.”
Isaiah 6:8 (ESV)
How then will they call on him in whom they have not believed? And how are they to believe in him of whom they have never heard? And how are they to hear without someone preaching? 15 And how are they to preach unless they are sent? As it is written, “How beautiful are the feet of those who preach the good news!”
Romans 10:14-15 (ESV)
For so the Lord has commanded us, saying, “‘I have made you a light for the Gentiles, that you may bring salvation to the ends of the earth.'”
Acts 13:47 (ESV)
The Goers, the Senders, and the Disobedient
We function under the biblical conviction that when it comes to missions, there are only three kinds of Christians: the goers, the senders, and the disobedient. Which will you be? Join us and explore what part God would have you play in the area of missions.
Missions Exists Because Worship Doesn’t
The reason man was created in the beginning and the reason the church is being recreated in the end is for the worship of God. Missions therefore is neither God’s primary end nor the primary end of the church. It is a means to the primary end of worship. Missions exists because worship doesn’t. There will be no missions in the age to come. Worship will be our life. Missions is not our ultimate goal. It is a means to our goal. – John Piper, Desiring God
