The Cape Town Commitment

Last October 4200 evangelical leaders from 198 nations gathered in Cape Town, South Africa to talk about the call for the whole church to take the whole gospel to the whole world. That discussion culminated in The Cape Town Commitment which has just been released.

In the forward, Doug Birdsall, Chairman of the Lausanne Movement, writes: "What are our hopes for The Cape Town Commitment? We trust that it will be talked about, discussed and afforded weight as a united statement from evangelicals globally; that it will shape agendas in Christian ministry; that it will strengthen thought-leaders in the public arena; and that bold initiatives and partnerships will issue from it."
