Radius International

Does seeing the glory of God necessitate a response on the part of man?

What are we to learn from the faithful service of pioneer missionaries of generations past? Is there something about their ministries that we can learn from today?

It is not correct to assume that if missionaries will just share their faith and hand out Bibles, that a New Testament Church will be born. It will take a deliberate effort to teach and guide new desciples for a long time.

When talking about Missions we need to be careful that we keep focused on the heart of God's command to make desciples among all nations.

What do you do when someone approaches you and says, "I think that I want to be a missionary?" Do you know? That is why Radius International exits. We are here to help the local church Equip their people before the Send them. This is a 30 minute presentation on what that looks like.

What is the role of the Holy Spirit in missions today? Is He doing something different in missions that He isn't doing in the Church?

Andy Johnson is the Missions Pastor at Capitol Hill Baptist Church and Author of the IXMarks book Missions. Here he discusses what should we as individuals and a local church look for in missions candidates and how should we support them?

Are we to expect that the time, effort, and intentionality that it takes to disciple believers to maturity here in the U.S. are not necessary when we cross the ocean? #missions #thegreatcommission #churchmembership #dmm #cpm

What can we learn from the Apostles about our methods and philosophies in misisions? Is our commission, method and responsibility essentially the same as the Apostles?

Does the New Testament give us precedent for self-correction or do we see a model of teaching through Scripture in dsicipleship?

Learning a language and culture to fluency isn't about loving language. It's about loving the Lord Jesus and being faithful to His gospel.

What happens to the unprepared missionary candidate? What happens on the field, in the sending church, and the missionary himself when missionary careers are prematurely ended. The fallout to everyone is large.

Learning the language and culture of a people cannot be allowed to be negotiable. Without fluency, syncretism or worse is the sure outcome.

What is the responsibility of the local church in choosing, training and sending out missionaries? Chad Vegas takes us through some biblical expectations on the church, individuals and the goal of completing the Great Commission.

An awareness of what is ahead for the gospel worker and his family is critical. North American values of family must be submitted to a biblical view of family.

When do our words communicate the gospel? What truths must be understood and embraced before forgiveness of sins and being in right relationship to the God of Scripture is assured?
