Missions
Missions is not the ultimate goal of the church. Worship is. Missions exists because worship doesn’t. Worship is ultimate, not missions, because God is ultimate, not man. When this age is over, and the countless millions of the redeemed fall on their faces before the throne of God, missions will be no more. It is a temporary necessity. But worship abides forever.
Worship, therefore, is the fuel and goal of missions. It’s the goal of missions because in missions we simply aim to bring the nations into the white-hot enjoyment of God’s glory. The goal of missions is the gladness of the peoples in the greatness of God. “The LORD reigns, let the earth rejoice; let the many coastlands be glad!” (Ps. 97:1). “Let the peoples praise you, O God; let all the peoples praise you! Let the nations be glad and sing for joy!” (Ps. 67:3–4).
But worship is also the fuel of missions. Passion for God in worship precedes the offer of God in preaching. You can’t commend what you don’t cherish. Missionaries will never call out, “Let the nations be glad” who cannot say from the heart, “I rejoice in the LORD. . . .
I will be glad and exult in you, I will sing praise to your name, O Most High” (Ps. 104:34; 9:2). Missions begins and ends in worship. - John Piper
Missions should be on our agenda because missions is on God's agenda. This site is not only to help those that are going, but those that are sending. Not every person is called to GO as a missionary, but ALL are commanded be involved. You can keep in contact with missionaries through blogs and updates. PRAY for missionaries, as that is their greatest need.
The main goal here is not motivate you to become a missionary, but to motivate you for the glory of God. When you taste and see the glory of God, and you see how great God is, you will get a burden for the things that God loves.
See where different missionaries are serving, and see what God is doing through them.
If you are a missionary, we want you to join us! Submit your site/blog, or sign up for one here!
