To the Ends of the Earth is the cover theme of Christian Standard’s November 2019 issue, a missions-focused edition that highlights gospel work across six continents. Built around Christ’s command to make disciples of all nations, this issue presents a broad look at missionary ministry, disciple-making, Bible translation, church planting, and Christian service around the world.
The feature package follows mission efforts in Africa, Europe, Asia, Australia and Oceania, Central and South America, and North America. Readers encounter stories from Christian Arabic Services, Christian Fellowship North in Poland, Christ for Asia, Pioneer Bible Translators in Papua New Guinea, Morning Glory Christian Academy in Guatemala, and Deaf Missions. Together, these articles show the global reach of the church and the many ways Christians are serving, translating Scripture, strengthening communities, and sharing the gospel across cultures and languages.
The November 2019 issue also includes regular departments on elder leadership, church life, online church, ministry partnerships, and community vision. The publisher’s and editor’s letters both frame the issue around a singular mission for the church: joining Jesus in calling God’s lost children home. For pastors, elders, mission leaders, and church members who want to understand or renew a commitment to global outreach, this issue offers a strong snapshot of mission-minded ministry in the Restoration Movement. To the Ends of the Earth preserves both the practical stories and the spiritual urgency of Christian mission at the close of 2019.
