By Ace Pendon | The Cru Digital Strategies team has been building digital training programs to equip the body of Christ for digital missions. Through their programs, they are training cohorts of digital missionaries to fill missional gaps helping the gospel to spread further and faster.
By Elizabeth Adleta, Susmitha Kothari, Ray Peng, Pastor X*, Robby Butler | An unprecedented number of people across the world are participating in coordinated 24/7/365 prayer for the fulfillment of God’s promise to bless all ethne. Advances in technology are fueling this prayer and linking believers together in prayer as never before.
By Andrew Feng and Nick Wu | Missions leaders and practitioners see the need for digital solutions, but they may be overwhelmed by the vast amounts of apps, tools, and strategies. The digital landscape for missions is key for collaboration.
By Sara Kaweesa | The peoples of Uganda have a distinct tie to the land, and their cultures have generation upon generation that tended to creation with care and respect. But the land and its creatures that we so deeply depend on are suffering, and in need of help. And while the Church has engaged in aspects of creation care, most Christians do not understand the connection between caring for God’s creation and their faith.
By Rachel Mash | How must we live in order to halt the disasters that are devastating food security and destroying the web of life on which we depend? How do we preach the good news of the gospel in this context? What is the mission to which God is calling us?
By Kuki Rokhum and Joylin Niruba | The Evangelical Fellowship of India Commission on Relief (EFICOR) started as an effort to respond to disasters, often in partnership with mission agencies and churches. However, as needs to provide relief increased, EFICOR developed a three-pronged approach (church, community, collaboration) to our response based on a broader understanding of mission, known as integral mission.
By Lawrence Ko | Being fully human comes with a mission to care for creation as God originally intended. Asian Journeys Ltd is a social enterprise that engages young people in Asia in environmental mission and creation care projects.
By Alice and Martin Tlustos | For many years we wrestled with our commitment to bring the gospel to people and participate in healing the earth. Through our involvement with Care of Creation Tanzania, we discovered a way to do both.
By Erik Hyatt | Most pastors, evangelists and missionaries have been trained to share about Jesus’s atoning sacrifice on the cross, the cleansing of every believer from their sin, and the imputed righteousness of Christ on the believer. But what about the transformational work of the Holy Spirit on all aspects of life? Shouldn’t a whole gospel message include a green gospel that leads to a believer’s changed relationship with God’s creation?
By Jasmine Kwong | OMF began its journey into creation care in the 1950s when work expanded into Southeast Asia. Building on that history, we later wrestled with what the Bible has to say about creation care. We stood convicted to see the gospel lived out in all aspects of our lives and work. This led us to look at creation care as a posture that must be integrated in all we do rather than a program requiring experts.
