As we experience God's love and healing and become more aware of God's Kingdom and the life and freedom it brings, we naturally want to share that with others. We do this not in a condescending way, not as brokers of power, but as servants who recognize the dignity, the beauty, the image of God in every person.
As we think about global engagement, it's inseparable from the other aspects of loving our neighbors around us. As we spend time with people we are profoundly changed ourselves. As we serve, we experience personal transformation that is part of the inward journey of discipleship. In our engagement, we seek to take time to develop understanding, build relationships with local people, learn from them and partner together to bring about the goodness of the Kingdom of God.
