DEVELOPING A VISION

SENDING CHURCH ELEMENT #3

A sending church develops a vision when, building from its missions convictions, it develops a short and clear vision statement. This vision statement guides the church as it ultimately considers specific people, places, and/or projects in local and global missions. Although the vision is God-sized, the church encapsulates it in a simple and compelling statement that can be embraced by all of its leaders and members.
