Challenges
1. How might Christians in the church, parachurch, and workplace collaborate to identify, reach, and disciple those who have limited to no access to the gospel?
The majority of Great Commission efforts are directed to populations who currently have access to the gospel. However, there are many people who have limited to no gospel access. These unreached and marginalized populations often are disconnected from traditional church structures, but are connected to a variety of governmental, educational, medical, and commercial institutions. Thus, reaching the unreached remains a priority for collaborative mission outreach by the church, parachurch, and workplace.
2. How might Christians in the church, parachurch, and workplace collaborate to reach and disciple others in and through this digital age to become more like Christ in wisdom, virtue, and fruitful living?
The majority of the global population lives and works in a digital world. The digital realm is now an increasingly important source of community, knowledge, and identity formation. Thus, questions arise as to the role of digital technology in the act of discipleship: in developing wisdom, growing virtue, and cultivating fruitful Christians to make a difference in their everyday lives. There is a need to reimagine forming every person to follow the way of Jesus in their particular context, guarding against a virtual and disembodied faith, while leaning into the new avenues of equipping everyone instantaneously in their time and place, sharing resources globally.
3. How might Christians in the church, parachurch, and workplace collaborate to reach and disciple the many people and groups relocating from their homeland, to live for Christ wherever they are?
In our contemporary age, the numbers of people who have moved from their homeland, whether voluntarily or involuntarily, is significant. Whether migrating, fleeing as a refugee, or pursuing international education or employment, people on the move experience relocation challenges ranging from community formation, ethnic identity, religious expression, economic status and more. These challenges create opportunities for hospitably sharing Christ in word and deed, forming whole-life disciples wherever they go to the places they live, learn, work, play, shop, and serve.
