Jesus Christ sent his disciples into the world, and he is doing the same today. We are sent out on the mission of advancing the kingdom and reign of God. As servants of the King, we are to communicate the transforming good news of Jesus the Messiah. In so doing, we are to present Christ credible among the gods and idols of this world as Lord of all creation. We are to re-envision the good news for our own time and generation so that God's transforming power is released once again upon our nation.
We are also called to engage in long-term, strategic spiritual, and social transformation that turns the world upside-down, beginning in our own neighbourhoods and extending to the very fabric of our nation and beyond. It is the challenge we face as disciples of Jesus at the beginning of the twenty-first century. It is easy to become despondent unless we remember that Jesus is Lord and that God has not changed. What he did at the beginning, he can still do today.
