Are Americans Needed in God’s Global Mission? An Appeal for Global Justice Practitioners
What the world needs now, perhaps more than ever, is individuals and communities intent on the work of God in all places. And here’s some great news: Every disciple of Christ, whether in Montana or Malawi is invited – all are necessary and the requisite is simple: Love God and be prepared to love the same world His Son died for. This means God has global openings for ambassadors, for those devoted to being salt and light . He’s looking for reconcilers, for witnesses who will follow Him even to the death.
He longs for His people to choose what’s just, to defend the cause of those who are weak and without a father. More than 2000 times, He brings up the poor and oppressed of this world and tells us to do something about them. And on the heels of this, we’re told to rescue the weak and needy, seek peace, plead the case of the widow, and care for the orphan. All this and more we call the mission of God.
