Missio Nexus ’24’ Peer-Learning Event
April 20-21 in the Chicago area
For more information and registration: MissioNexus.org/events
Culture is rapidly changing with respect to marriage, singleness and sexuality. Mission organizations need biblically grounded tools and resources to provide constructive responses to these cultural challenges. Though singles and marrieds, with and without children, may serve shoulder to shoulder on teams, they have very different perceptions, needs and challenges.
What are the critical differences? How do we respond to the cultural challenges and live the reality of who we are in Christ as we serve together on teams – thriving in service and community? How do we effectively value and leverage every member?
This 24 event will equip mission leaders to develop answers to these questions through understanding the cultural trends, examining the biblical data, gleaning feedback from missionaries across the globe, and interacting with other leaders. We will offer a biblical foundation for thinking and reflecting on the issues of singleness, marriage and sexuality relevant for all cultures, traditional and western. In a collaborative learning environment participants will have opportunity to share methods for better supporting and leveraging single and married members in their mission. Together we can be prepared to face a world of challenges and lead the mission endeavor through the twenty-first century and beyond.
This event will be facilitated by the Shoulder-to-Shoulder team, an initiative of One Another Ministries.
