A.C.T.S.
The Mission Of The Church In The Light Of The Mission Of Jesus
The Mission Of The Church In The Light Of The Mission Of Jesus
We will talk about the four phases of Jesus' disciple-making mission
Attract -- Challenge -- Train -- Send
or, if you prefer
Serve -- Evangelise -- Nurture -- Deploy
Jesus' crowd ministry was very different from His ministry to the disciples - in some ways, diametrically opposed - and yet they were part of the same process.
This framework gives as a tool for planning our own mission, individually or as a church, and a tool for assessing the life of our church. What activities of our church fit into each of those four categories? What is the main purpose of each one? Is each connected to the next one? This could revolutionise the life of your church!
It will be very interactive with time to reflect on your own situation.
