Objective<br />
Overview<br />
To develop a definition and scorecard for<br />
making missionary disciples in the local<br />
church.<br />
The conversation seeks to make the mission<br />
tangible and personal. In many ways the<br />
process of this <strong>Primer</strong> has worked like a<br />
Google map. We started with the map zoomed<br />
out to God’s desire for the world. From there,<br />
we zoomed in a click to the scope of the<br />
mission, then to the nature of God’s Kingdom,<br />
and finally to the specific harvest field that<br />
lies before each of our churches. Now, we are<br />
going to wrestle with the question of how we<br />
go about impacting that specific harvest. The<br />
answer will necessitate the transformation<br />
of the people in our churches. God’s grace,<br />
transforming the identity, affections, and<br />
actions of missionary disciples is the Godordained<br />
means of bringing about lasting<br />
transformation.<br />
