A sending church cultivates missions awareness by instilling a holistic culture of God’s mission rather than simply a missions ministry. Rather than beginning with activity, the church fosters a sent identity, a missional lens through which to see all of life. Church leaders first give attention to growth in their own missiology. Then they help their fellow leaders and members to know the local and global calling that flows from God’s heart. There is a reason this is our very first sending element as everything else flows from it. This month we want to help you learn how to cultivate missions awareness in yourself and among your church members through blog articles, other resources, and training. Let us know how we can help you!
