Life As Mission Basic

Do I have to be a cross-cultural overseas missionary to participate in God’s mission? What does my study, work or family life have to do with God’s mission? What about social justice or creation care? What does it mean to live a “missional life” or grow a “missional church”? 

Using Christopher Wright’s book, The Mission of God’s People, we will explore together how to be a missional people who participate in God’s mission in all spheres of our lives. The two primary questions we will address together are: Who are we (our identity)? And what are we here for (our mission)? The class will provide a comprehensive and holistic vision of God’s mission for God’s people in God’s world. We will incorporate reading and discussion, prayer and practice through which we will be equipped to equip God’s people for missional living.

Course Objectives

Upon completion of this course, we anticipate that students will:

  1. Reframe their understanding of “mission” through a biblical-theological and missional reading of the whole Bible.
  2. Establish a holistic vision of God’s mission that is to be applied in their personal lives and church ministries.
  3. Possess resources to equip God’s people to participate in God’s mission in everyday lives.
