I think that Bosch’s definition of
mission is so broad because there are so many ways to do mission for God’s
kingdom. God gave each person unique talents and abilities, which leads to the
conclusion that he has a unique design for each person to fulfill his mission.
Different personalities and skill sets will be effective in different places
and ways, but can work together to further God’s kingdom. Some people will excel
in evangelism, while others will have a passion for justice or liberation.
Christians that love to serve will do so, and those who can effectively plant
churches will. My personal definition of missions is similar. Missions is
anything that Christians do in the will of God to affect others positively in
his name.
