Vision and values

When terms like vision and values are mentioned, some argue that we are introducing the world’s thinking into God’s work.

I have some sympathy with that as management-speak is all around us and it is easy to do things for wrong reasons. But it is hard to believe that vision is not involved in Jesus’s statement to go into all the world to make disciples. That is a huge vision and one which many feel we may have lost. Paul’s vision clearly drove him into Asia Minor and on into Greece and beyond, so that people of every nation should hear the gospel.
