Five Steps to Help You Find Your Role in the Mission of God


The church has one mission. As Paul puts it in Romans 15:21, our job is to ensure that “… those who have never been told of him will see, and those who have never heard will understand” (ESV).

We all have a role in that mission. Whatever spiritual gifts and abilities you have, you are supposed to interpret them in light of the bigger picture of God’s purposes stated in his Word—to get the gospel to the ends of the earth.

John Piper says when it comes to the Great Commission, there are only three options: go, send, or disobey. Some of us are called to go, and others are called to send.

If you don’t know what that looks like in your life, here are a few steps you can take to get started in fulfilling your role in God’s global purposes.
