“There are at least three commitments that every church should make.
“[1]…to support the church in other parts of the world…[with] theological training…prayer…finances…
[2]…to send out missionaries…Christians who are willing to go…totally committed to living for Christ…willing to die for Christ…
[3]…to realize that every Christian is a missionary…[in] your local community…helping to plant growing, vibrant missions-minded churches…re-evangelizing dying congregations…reaching out to internationals…speak[ing] about spiritual things with friends, neighbors, co-workers and family members…penetrating society in culture-transforming ways [as] Christian lawyers and doctors, singers and dancers, builders and bakers, students and teachers, buyers and sellers, journalists and politicians.”
