On one hand, the mission of the church is simple, to be faithful to Jesus Christ. On the other hand, it requires commitment from both the individual and the community to be humble enough to be open for direction and courageous enough to follow where Jesus leads.
Today’s conversation explores how Christians have historically understood their call to participate in God’s mission through several ways:
- Evangelism
- Outreach
- Social Righteousness
- Discipleship
- Forgiveness
While these provide a basic framework for understanding the Christian’s call to mission, it is important that we remain open to the Spirit’s leading as each of us is transformed into our new identity in Jesus Christ.
