Being a Pentecostal missionary is a response to God’s divine calling, requiring both personal commitment and alignment with Assemblies of God World Missions (AGWM). This book explores the process of discerning missionary candidates, emphasizing AGWM’s steadfast commitment to indigenous church planting, leadership training, and serving the poor. Through biblical insights and historical examples, it highlights the necessity of aligning personal and collective calls to effectively fulfill God’s mission.
In this first volume, the articles focus on AGWM's vision, mission, and core values. The idea is to begin the series reemphasizing the foundational elements that shape the overall philosophy and methodology of our mission. This volume is divided into two sections. The first section consists of two articles addressing the vision, purpose, and mission written by AGWM's executive director and the director of Communications. In section two, eight articles follow written by members of the AGWM Executive Committee addressing each core value and the significance of that value related to our mission's practice.
