Our natural focus is always inward, we are by our own sinful nature self-centered. So inevitably churches tend after time tend to focus inwardly and not outwardly. Their focus becomes how many people they can get to come into their buildings on Sunday’s, so they have to develop relevant, innovative services to draw people to their buildings.
They have to maintain and upgrade the buildings so people want to come in, etc….. and slowly our focus becomes inward towards ourselves, and not as Jesus intended the focus of His church to be, which would be out side the walls of the church. That is why mobilization is necessary, because it is more natural to focus on ourselves (our church, our people, our city) than it is to focus on the world.
Because I travel almost every week, sometimes I need to go to my chiropractor and he applies pressure to align my back.
That is what Global Focus does, it helps a church to align around the true reason that it exits, to be God’s instrument to extend His Kingdom to every people group in the planet.
That is why Global Focus is not a seminar or a teaching course, but a process of implementing paradigm changes. Just as my chiropractor applies pressure each visit, so GF each mentoring session helps align each local church and apply changes that result in mobilizing the entire church around God’s global mission.
