Ed Stetzer is an incredibly valuable resource to the Church today. His passions for helping revitalize churches and for global missions make much that he writes essential reading. So when I saw his article entitled, Five Reasons Missional Churches Don't Do Global Missions-- and How to Fix It, I had to read it.
You see, I want us to be missional in focus--realizing that every aspect of our lives is to be purposefully engaged for God's glory and gospel penetration of the culture around us. I also want us to see global missions as the task before us as a church. Using both terms--missional and missions--is not always fashionable, but I believe both are important. This article was a great read, and I commend it to anyone who wants a quick introduction to the problem that has plagued many who emphasize missional church life--the loss of zeal for reaching the peoples of the world.
