God Might Be Preparing Your for Global Impact

Simple/organic church folk might be key to the army God is
preparing for needed global impact.

Though progress is being made, some estimate there are still
over 6,000 unreached people groups (out of 11,700 total people groups) in which
less than 2% are believers.  To live
within such an unreached group means that it is highly likely you will live and
die never hearing the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

Here is a simple overview of people groups worldwide along
with the reminder that Jesus clearly said his
target is ‘all nations’ meaning all people groups (‘ta ethne’).

So, why might simple/organic church folk be the very army
that God is preparing for global impact?

1. Training is needed throughout the world in disciplemaking
movements that lead to church planting movements so that these large groups of
unreached people can be reached with the Gospel.  While business/institutional models of church
hinder these movements, simple/organic church folk understand the type of
church gatherings that can help facilitate and release such movements.  This understanding is needed throughout the
world.

2. Simple/organic church folk understand that money is not
needed for the church to grow and reproduce making it much easier for the
Gospel to go forward.  Furthermore, much
money can be freed up from the west, through simple/organic church expressions
to flow into unreached parts of the world. 

3. Simple/organic church folk understand that the life of a
Jesus follower is a 24/7 lifestyle rather than the passive attendance of church
services.  This means more vibrant,
impactful disciples are made.

4. Simple/organic church folk are committed to hearing and
following the voice of Jesus and none other. 
As we continue to tune our ears more and more to him, it is likely that his
heart for ‘all peoples’ will motivate more and more people to reach beyond the
comfort of their own people group and extend themselves to reach others.

5. Simple/organic church folk understand that the church is
a going organism, not a come-and-sit event. 
Our mentality is to be involved with Jesus in his mission throughout the
world.  We live with a readiness to go
where he sends!

Has your heart been stirring for the unreached people groups of the world?
