Church Planting Movements are essentially about discipleship communities committed to obeying Christ’s commands rather than knowledge-based curricula, as demonstrated by innovative Four Square disciples departing from institutional models to focus on lifestyle and relationship.

The aspect that needs training, more than any other, in cross-cultural workers, is attitude… But there is a particular perspective, a certain capacity, without which entering a new culture to bring the gospel is impossible. The requisite capacity is an ability to handle grey (anyone crossing cultures quickly learns that not everything is black and white and that categories from before cannot be used), an appreciation of diversity, an honouring of others: Global Humility.

The major focus of this series is to help us to recognize those intended or possible benefits and respond well to the suffering we experience. In that way, the suffering will not be wasted. If we respond poorly then the enemy and the kingdom of darkness will achieve their purpose through it. God has good intentions for us in all the suffering He allows. If we respond appropriately, we will be blessed as we experience the good He intends for us. Let’s cooperate with His intentions for our own good and for the sake of the Kingdom and the King.
