While statements slightly differ between Frontier Ventures and Perspectives, they are aligned and so I'll talk about vision in the singular. An organization with competing vision statements is doomed.
Ultimately we long to see
Habakkuk 2:14 come to fruition "
For the earth will be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the Lord as the waters cover the sea." Note that the key word here is knowledge; God's glory is already covering the earth (
Romans 1:19-20). However relational knowledge of this gospel is not widespread (
Matthew 24:14,
Romans 10:9-17); where there is no access to this gospel, we've described them as
unreached people groups. God has declared his purpose that some from all peoples would collectively represent his glory (
Rev. 7:9-12). This verse with a picture of a map is hung high and in plain view in our office as a reminder of what we do everyday. God has said that the harvest is ready but the laborers are few; thus we pray and work towards raising up laborers to join his mission of reconciliation (
Luke 10:2).
The
Great Commission (found in all four gospels) is a mandate for all to be a part of. Its an invitation to be about the Father's business. We all have a role to play. For this season, God has us mobilizing and training others to join the cause. We were challenged to stay to be fruitful via multiplication; essentially could our strategic not going open the door for many others to strategically go or strategically stay? Our prayer is that by staying stateside and doing the work of mobilization, hundreds or even thousands would get involved in reaching the unreached.
