That his name might be known among every tribe, nation, and tongue

we must be global christians with a global vision because our god is a global god.

–John Stott

We believe God is clear in his word that to follow Christ is to be commissioned to join him in actively making disciples from our local contexts, all the way to the ends of the earth.

Here are some next steps to Consider:

  1. Discuss Your Interest – Meet with a CO Staff or pastor at church to talk about your interest in overseas missions. How can you take small steps now in your current context?

  2. Read Books About Missions – “Let the Nations be Glad,” Missionary biographies, “What Are You Going To Do with Your Life?,” or ask a pastor or staff for recommendations.

  3. Pray for the Nations – Create a habit of praying for the nations. Ask others to start a prayer group. Use Operation World or Joshua Project as a daily guide.

  4. See God’s Heart for the World – Go through a missions Bible study to see more of God’s heart for the world through all of scripture. Go through the Traveling Team’s Beginner’s Guide to Global Impact. Take a class like Perspectives to learn more.

  5. Continue Being Developed – Consider joining the Nurture Program at The North Church or Bethlehem Baptist Church. Seek opportunities with CO or your church to practice sharing your faith.

  6. Consider Going – Investigate overseas opportunities like Cross Cultural Project each summer with CO, short term missions trips through your church, or serving two years after graduation with CO LEAD.

Prayerfully consider: How you can best contribute to God’s global mission? How can you leverage your strengths, gifts, and career for the glory of God and in a strategic location for the mission of God?
