The Goal of Mission (Acts 2:42-47) // Graham Beynon

The aim of mission is to build the unified church to glorify Jesus the head.

The goal of mission is to build gospel churches; the gospel message produces gospel churches.

We don't get to decide what church looks like; but we get to help church look like the gospel. And gospel churches become a vehicle for mission.

This message is the fourth of four given at the 2025 FIEC Leaders' Conference held in Blackpool from 10-12 November 2025.
