The Centrality of the Local Church in Missions

The Bible clearly teaches, for those with eyes open, that the local church is the central agent, the means and the end, of missions. There are a number of ways and places that demonstrate this. One of them is Ephesians 3. It points to the centrality of the local church in missions. It is a hallmark of Paul’s ministry.

Here’s the explanation in an expositional overview teaching format:
