Missiologist Christopher J. H. Wright states, “It is not that God has a mission for his church in the world but that God has a church for his mission in the world. Mission was not made for the church; the church was made for mission.”
That is a clear and compelling call to get on mission with God.
And just what is God’s mission? It is the establishment of God’s glorious rule over a redeemed creation. Therefore, that is your mission, your church’s mission, and the mission of Petros Network, too. That is why we exist.
Now, God has called Petros Network to particularly focus its mission on reaching the 3.2 billion people on the planet who have never heard the gospel before. Our vision is to plant gospel preaching churches within walking distance of every unreached person in the world. For sure, that is a lofty, if not impossible goal, but it is our goal, nonetheless.
You see, we passionately believe that where a person is born should not limit their access to Jesus and the blessings of his kingdom. For that reason, we have established our missiology upon taking the gospel of the kingdom to each of the world’s 7,200 unreached ethnic groups.
In fact, we believe it is these unreached people groups to which Jesus is referring when he said,
“And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in the whole world as a testimony to all nations [Greek: panta ta Ethne], and then the end will come” (Matt 24:14).
In this series of video blogs, we want to lay out that missiology in such a compelling way that you and your church will embrace it as your own as well. Thank you for taking a moment to watch this brief introductory video that makes the case for reaching the unreached.
