Why Missions Matters

In Acts 1:8 Jesus gives some of his final words to his followers before returning to Heaven. It's this challenge to be his witnesses "here, there and to the ends of the earth" - the direction was of primary importance: Beginning from where you are at this moment, take the message of Christ outward, like ripples caused by a pebble thrown into a pond. You could say it this way: "personal reach, local reach and global reach"
