Episode 47: God’s Mission Has a Church – Joining God’s Work
What if the church exists not for its own mission, but for God’s? Tim McConnell and guest host Sara Wilkerson dive into how God's mission shapes the church and our role in His redemptive plan.
God’s mission has a church, not the other way around. Reflecting on Christopher Wright's insights, they explore what it means for believers to join God’s work rather than striving to accomplish their own. Through personal anecdotes, theological reflections, and practical takeaways, they consider how faith, surrender, and being in tune with God’s Spirit shape our understanding of mission. From creation to redemption, God is actively restoring His world, and we are invited to join Him in His work. Listen in to be inspired to realign your perspective and see your role in God’s greater story.
