    What Is A Missionary?

    We think a missionary is someone who crosses the sea. Rather, a missionary is someone who sees the cross!

    Mission Quotes

    If everything is Mission then nothing is mission.
    – this empties the word mission of all meaning.

    A bird with only one wing won’t fly

    A pair of scissors needs two blades not one.

    Mission is discerning what God is doing in the world and trying to do it with Him.

    God Church and Mission

    ‘The Church of God does not have a mission in the world’ . . . it is more accurate to say that ‘The God of mission has a church in the world’.

    Yuk!

    A little girl was in church with her mother when she started feeling ill. “Mummy,” she said, “can we leave now?”
    “No,” her mother replied.
    “Well, I think I have to throw up!”
    “Then go out the front door and around to the back of the church and throw up behind a bush.”
    After about 60 seconds the little girl returned to her seat.
    “Did you throw up?” Mum asked.
    “Yes.”
    “How could you have gone all the way to the back of the church and returned so quickly?”
    “I didn’t have to go out of the church, Mummy. They have a box next to the front door that says, ‘For the Sick.’”
