You want to lead your church well in fulfilling her role in global missions, to ensure that the giving, going, sending and partnering are truly making an eternal impact. Oftentimes, mission discussions are relegated to the leaders of mission organizations but we believe God has chosen local churches, like yours, to be primary in his global redemptive plan. Pastors and church leaders are global mission strategists and we want to help you lead well.
Church as Mission is a free series of monthly, live conversations about contemporary mission topics specifically designed to serve you as pastor or church leader. Each session will focus on understanding the topic well while providing tangible and practical tools for you and your church.

Paul basically exhorted the early church that it was unity in their diversity that brings God glory — there’s a difference between multicultural and intercultural. As the primary means of fulfilling Christ's commission, your church's unity has global and eternal implications.
