Understanding Accountability in Mission

Accountability in mission is crucial for microchurches, as it ensures that group members remain focused on their collective purpose. It is essential to define 'mission' clearly, distinguishing it from ministry, which often revolves around nurturing existing community members. Mission emphasizes outreach to those outside the church, targeting the least and the lost, reflecting a sense of being 'sent' into the world. This understanding sets a foundation for members to hold each other accountable, maintaining their commitment to engaging in meaningful, action-oriented tasks that serve their mission.
