Why Focus on all Five of the Fivefold?

Here, we have a blog written by one of our affiliates Bill Randall. He is the director of Pioneering Initiatives (a strategic department of NOVO) and a full-time missionary with Novo. In this blog, Bill unpacks the fivefold typology of Ephesians 4 and why “we desperately need to learn how to functionally embrace the complete fivefold if we sincerely desire to Re-Jesus the earth”.

At The Gathering Network we recognise the importance of the fivefold ministry in our microchurch model. We include it in our training and come back to it multiple times a year within the larger community to help improve our missional living and community, therefore, we would love to point you in the direction of this blog and those alike on Bill’s website. As always, enjoy the reading and let us know if you have any questions or comments on the writing - we love a good discussion!
