New Models of Mission
By Evelyn Hibbert | The growth of the church in the Majority World and its decline in traditional sending countries is causing significant changes in mission. This has created challenges and opportunities.
Reimagining the Arts in Mission
By Heather Pubols | The arts have long been an important part of missions. Yet a historical preference for importing Western art forms into non-Western contexts left Christianity feeling culturally foreign. A shift towards encouraging local arts is inspiring authentic global Christian expressions across cultures and transforming missions.
Evangelism
By Evelyn Hibbert | The gospel is more than words. It encompasses all the riches of Christ in us, the hope of glory (Colossians 1:27). Too often evangelism has neglected the importance of relationships, context, and Christ’s lordship. Communicating the gospel includes how we live, according to where we live. From a place of belonging in each context, Jesus welcomes people in. As we embrace the people and culture of the context we serve in, we are more able to give answers to the questions they are asking.
The Forgotten Billion
By Heather Pubols | More than a billion people worldwide have disabilities, and most have never heard the gospel. However, mission agencies often overlook this community in their mobilization and ministry strategies.

Practitioners working at this crossroads of missions and technology describe missions, evangelism, discipleship, churches, prayer meetings, and even metaverse mission fields all contained within digital environments.
