Mission

Another key theme i had been thinking about whilst on placement was a missional objective. Yet i do not mean simply a missional objective in the preaching and the preacher but a missional objective which streams from the pews (or chairs)!

The great commission is a reminder to us all that mission is not simply for missionaries, ministers and evangelists but to every Christian. We are all called to spread the gospel in church, work, home and social settings. This is crucial to the building of God's kingdom as it is how He intends us to work.

When we take this missional objective into our lives and live it - as God wants us to - we can begin to help build the Church for God by His power. When we come to Church and feed of the word and worship God we can then go out into our communities and bring others in. When everyone is pulling their weight growth is not a surprise but a pleasure to give God praise for.
