Escaping the Missional Fog
One major reason for a tendency to move away from a focus on mission as disciple-making and towards broader definitions has been a loss of belief in the eternal consequences of human lostness and in the uniqueness of Christ’s work as the means by which human beings are restored to the Father.
Under those conditions the emphasis necessarily moves away from the spiritual and eternal and towards the physical and temporal.
