Matthew Josey

“The reality is, of course, as soon as you think seriously about it, that the mission field is everywhere, including your own street – wherever there is ignorance or rejection of the gospel of Jesus Christ.”
― Christopher J. H. Wright, The Mission of God's People: A Biblical Theology of the Church’s Mission

“Spiritual warfare is not about naming territorial spirits, claiming the ground or binding demons. It is all about the gospel. It is to live a gospel life, to preserve gospel unity and to proclaim gospel truth. It is to do this in the face of a hostile world, a deceptive enemy and our own sinful natures. And it is to pray to a sovereign God for gospel opportunities. Advance comes through godliness, unity, proclamation and prayer. Timothy Chester, on Ephesians 621”

“our mission is nothing less (or more) than participating with God in this grand story until he brings it to its guaranteed climax.”
