African missionaries are challenging the modern missionary mindset
Churches, mission agencies and the modern missionary movement have been used greatly by God to expand His kingdom and fulfil the great commission. They have reached new generations across the world with the good news, planted churches among the least-reached indigenous groups, and helped support local communities by providing education, healthcare, and aid.
But what churches and mission agencies should consider is engaging with communities in a way that demonstrates that they understand the fullness of the Kingdom of God. That is, seeking transformation in all areas of society. For example, missions have rarely engaged in business, despite benefitting from it, and most are not equipped to speak into these areas, or even to connect local Christians to other believers who operate in these areas.
