WITH LOVE,
AND ASTONISHMENT
Our God sees the end from the beginning. He summons individuals, calling them
into His purpose. Through the one willing to obey His call, He accomplishes what
He purposes for the nations.
The missional journey decreed by the Great Commission reflects two sides of the
same coin:
From one side God works in the nations through the one He calls to His purpose.
From the other, God works in the one through the nation He purposes to redeem.
In the story of Abraham, we see the journey of one who was handpicked and sent
by God, the Multiplier of blessings.

purposes will be accomplished. Amidst thick darkness, God’s glory will be seen
upon His people and nations shall come to His light.
As He extends to you an invite to the nations, will you give your life to the One
who has given His for yours?
