Description

We are told, by Jesus, to preach the gospel and make disciples of all nations. So missions is duty, right? Wrong. If you do missions purely from a sense of duty you will not honor those you are reaching out to, nor will you truly honor God. Duty is the wrong place to look, so where do we find the answer to why we do missions? We turn, according to John Piper, to worship. In our worship of God we encounter God's glory. The overflow from our worship is a desire to share God's glory with others. Missions is never a burden because it comes out of our overwhelming joy in God's grace and mercy, and we want to share that joy. So make God the center of your missions work, and joyfully share what He has graciously given to you.
