The Great Commission has always been a group project.
What's your role?
The Great Commission is too great to do alone. More than 40% of the world’s population is cut off from the good news of Jesus. That’s 3.4 billion people living without the hope of Christ. They are the least-reached.
No one organization, project or person can bring news of this hope to all of them. But together, the Church can. The Body of Christ was designed for this purpose, and we believe that every part has a role to play. But not every believer is called to be involved in the same ways. How is God calling you to participate in the Great Commission?
Send
Christar doesn’t send cross-cultural workers—the local church does. Sending is an ongoing, multifaceted responsibility that begins long before a worker is sent and continues through his or her cross-cultural service. Churches encourage their members to be involved in God’s global work and commission some to serve as extensions of their ministry across the globe. They regularly support those they send, providing oversight and connection as well as prayer and financial backing.
Go
As God works in local bodies of believers, He leads some of His people to minister in least-reached communities. They proclaim the gospel, disciple those who believe and gather them together into reproducing churches. Some serve as traditional full-time Christian workers, while others leverage their professional skills and experience in the global marketplace, pursuing careers and/or establishing businesses in places with little or no gospel witness.
Christar partners with churches by equipping these cross-cultural workers for effective church-planting ministry and providing ongoing training and support.
Your Journey With Christar
Resources on Going
Volunteer
Through Switchboard, believers serve as Kingdom Consultants, investing their skills and expertise to help cross-cultural teams overcome obstacles and serve more effectively in least-reached communities. As these virtual volunteers collaborate from a distance, they can directly impact a least-reached community by filling gaps on the field and enabling workers to serve in ways that wouldn’t otherwise be possible.
Get Started With Switchboard
Pray
No Great Commission work is possible without prayer. Establishing churches among the least-reached is a God-sized task, and we rely on His guidance and enablement. Through prayer, members of the Body of Christ join us in recognizing our dependence on the Lord and asking for His help.
Release
Parents, grandparents and other loved ones sacrifice in-person connection for the sake of the gospel. They release family members who minister cross-culturally, pray for them and their ministries and encourage them from afar. They also advocate for missions within their spheres of influence.
