We continue the series with Nathan Shank on Discovering the Missionary Task.In today’s study, consider a survey of Old and New Testament descriptions of the targets of God’s mission. If sin causes separation, missions cross the resulting barriers to initiate God’s mission. Were there passages or promises you considered for the first time? As we examine our own targets how do they compare with the consistent message and targets of scripture?In the second look at the empty field, we consider God’s investment ahead of our missions efforts. How might we join him as we cross barriers and mobilize our disciples to follow his lead and fish for men? Consider with us passages across the Gospels demonstrating Jesus’ sending of his own disciples amidst towns and villages “he himself was about to go.” What principles or patterns might we discern, how do these examples compare with the tools and ideas we employ for engaging new fields?Watch the series on Youtube: youtube.com/@DiscoveringtheMissionaryTask (youtube.com/@DiscoveringtheMissionaryTask)
