I read your "what is missions" post and I saw you give examples and biblical ones at that but I never saw an actual ---here is my definition to wrestle with.

It felt like when someone asks...what is love. No one defines it but they give me examples of what it looks like. A mother holding her baby, a husband embracing his wife...what is it?

Same with missions....how do you define it?
