Quotes about Mission

Every Christian should live life with an open Bible and an open map.

When I consider my ministry, I think of the world. Anything less than that would not be worthy of Christ, nor of his will for my life.

It is clear from our Lord's prayer that He does not intend for us to withdraw from contact with the world of non-Christians (John 17:15). Instead, He said we are to be 'the salt of the earth' and 'the light of the world' (Matthew 5:13-14).

Make His purpose your purpose.

If you are breathing, you are still alive. If you are alive, then you are still here, physically, on this planet. If you are still here, then you have not completed what you were put on earth to do.

If your purpose has not yet been fulfilled, then the most important part of your life has not yet been lived.

A photo op. Again, we lose our elevated position as the conscience of the nation. We give up the moral and ethical high ground.
