The command from Matthew 28:18–20 to create disciples from all nations inspires Christians to share the gospel and create opportunities for new converts to learn and grow. Not all missionaries focus on the same part of this process. Some focus on sharing their faith and others might focus more on long-term ministry and helping local churches excel in the discipleship process.
But alongside the Great Commission, some missionaries find themselves compelled by other factors, too. This includes a desire to serve people and meet their needs, and a commitment to making a positive difference in the world. On top of that, many see Christian missions as integral to their journey of self-discovery and growth.
The greatest responsibility and the highest privilege that God has given to his people and the church is that of partnering with him in ministries and missions. Mission and Ministries are an attribute of our sending God and are the essence of his loving nature.
Christian churches, ministries, and missions work encompasses a diverse range of activities undertaken by individuals and groups who are driven by their faith and a genuine desire to make a positive impact on the world. Missionaries serve communities through spiritual guidance, humanitarian aid, education, poverty alleviation, child and family care, healthcare, and empowering initiatives. Their work extends beyond faith and religious conversion, focusing on holistic development, social advocacy, and fostering sustainable transformation.
For this goal to be achieved the Christian churches, ministries, and missions, need to overcome certain barriers inhibiting their effective ability to conduct their missions. Christian churches, ministries, and missions need to be equipped to achieve their planned objectives, to have an impact, and to fulfill their organizational and vocational purpose.
For the last decades, It has been widely acknowledged that their insufficient capacity hinders their sustainable development objectives and had little success initially. Despite different types of support and funding received, Christian churches, ministries, and missions battle with many challenges in this 21st century, such that there is a need for an innovative and more productive approach to rectify the present failure scenario Proverbs 15:22.
As a result, they can’t fulfill their vocational purposes (1 Chronicles 16:24) and meet the most pressing needs in their geographic area, and remain stuck at the bottom of the development chain.
To overcome those challenges Novatis as a Christian organization dedicated to the advancement of the Kingdom of the Lord (Proverbs 16:3), has developed the Advancing Christian Development (ACD) as a tool to help Christian churches, ministries, and missions to enhance adaptive capacities and resilience at various levels and increase their ability to serve effectively.
