What Paul Left Behind In Ephesus

Four Contributions Pioneering Local Laboring Local Leading Coming Alongside

The Missing Word To advance the Gospel of Jesus and His Kingdom into the Nations through spiritual generations of laborers living and discipling [ ] among the lost.

Our Vision Both personally and in committed communities, [Navigator laborers] seek to know and pursue the purposes of God. Teams of mobile pioneers intentionally proclaim and embody the good news of Jesus Christ, in such a way that transformed communities multiply. These communities are bringing joy and hope to their surrounding environments

The Community of Local Laborers That Paul Left Behind Acts 19:9-10 [Paul] took the disciples with him and had discussions daily in the lecture hall of Tyrannus. This went on for two years, so that all the Jews and Greeks who lived in the province of Asia heard the word of the Lord.

The Community of Local Laborers That Paul Left Behind Paul’s Vision: ”In Him you are being built together to become a dwelling in which God lives by His Spirit.” Ephesians 2:19-22 Paul’s Prayer: “To him be the glory in the [ekklesia] and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations.” Ephesians 3:14-21 Paul’s Earnest Desire: “Make every effort to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.” Ephesians 4:1-3

The Local Leaders That Paul Left Behind To leave behind local leaders: Paul invested deeply in local leaders. (Acts 20:31) Paul appointed local leaders. (Titus 1:5) Paul left, so that they could grow. (Acts 20:1) Paul continued to invest in them. (Acts 20:17, 28)

The Assignment That Paul Left Behind What if the fruit of my ministry are no longer local to me? Continue to pray for them. (Ephesians 1:15-16) Write to them. (Ephesians 1:1) Send help to them. (1 Timothy 1:3) Ensure that they entrust our calling to others. (2 Timothy 2:2)

Our Vision “An international leadership community brings focus, alignment and energy to their movement. These leaders are clearly committed to long- term impact in generational ministry.”

Our Calling Amplified We are called to advance the Gospel of Jesus and His kingdom into the nations through spiritual generations of local laborers who live and disciple together among the lost.
