Vision for Mission

The essence of mission is to be engulfed with the flame, the love that our Father displayed for His lost world, Christ proved in His death on the cross, and the apostles demonstrated as they went to the ends of the earth with the Gospel. This course was designed to identify and explore the various dimensions of an apostolic vision that enables God's man or woman to invest strategically in winning souls to Christ, to make disciples of those who respond, and pioneer new fields for the Lord. This course examines those specific biblical insights, commitments, and values that enabled the apostles literally to "turn the world upside down." Topics include such major themes as the extreme urgency of this present hour, the inevitability of divine judgment, the absolute power of the Gospel, the integrity of the call to make disciples, the ripeness of the fields for harvest, the certainty of God's accountability on our lives to fulfill the Great Commission, and God's universal offer of grace to all humankind.
