Vision 2019-2020

 

 

Very soon nearly every human will have a mobile device in their pocket.

That means they have access to the gospel all day, every day—usually in a familiar language. Digital strategies allow the gospel to permeate the hardest places to reach, including locations where it is not possible to physically send missionaries. 

Together with our partners, Cru has the opportunity, the technology and a clear plan to help millions of people all over the world take their next step of faith with Jesus Christ with someone they trust.

We are a team of missionaries who provide spiritual and strategic leadership in digital missions.

GOD HAS CALLED US TO HELP FULFILL THE GREAT COMMISSION.

We believe God is fulfilling this 2,600-year-old prophecy in our times through digital media: “Write the vision, make it plain on tablets, so that the one who reads it may run… The earth will be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the LORD as the waters cover the seas.” — Habakkuk 2:2,14
