How to mobilize mission vision among your fellowship

The proven do’s and don’ts of sharing mission vision—
mobilization skills that every World Christian must master.

Face it: Every one of us world Christians have got to learn how to mobilize regardless of our specific role since we all want to help raise mission vision.

The point isn’t to get everyone to go as missionaries; it’s to be realistic and facilitate whole church awareness, education, involvement and deployment—a process that in North America takes at least 3-5 years in a non-mission-minded fellowship!

 

What we’ve learned about mission mobilization over the past couple decades is: The old ways don’t work anymore. For example, the next time you share about what you learned in Perspectives, you might avoid the dreaded “M” word. The word missions has lots of preconceived and usually inaccurate baggage in our culture. Instead of “missions,” consider tossing into your conversation phrases such as:

The worldwide move of God
Extending the Kingdom throughout the earth
God’s call to this generation
God’s global plan for all peoples
The global cause of Christ
The Kingdom move of God
God’s plan through the ages

Joining God in what He’s doing in our world
God’s unchangeable purpose
Finding our place of significant service
Strategic global impact
Our life-purpose & God’s big picture
Cross‑cultural effectiveness
Reaching all peoples locally & globally
