Living Sent

Living Sent – Jason Wallar (or related Living Sent material)

The core idea of “Living Sent” is that every believer is already on mission. We do not need to wait for a special calling or a overseas assignment to live as people who have been sent by Jesus. Everyday places — workplaces, neighborhoods, schools, and family tables — become the primary arenas of mission when we see ourselves as sent ones. The emphasis is on presence, relationship, and ordinary faithfulness rather than only on events or programs.
