A
Christian mission has been widely defined, since the
Lausanne Congress of
1974, as that which is designed "to form a viable indigenous
church-planting movement." This definition is motivated by
theological analyses of the acts required to enhance
God's reputation (his "glory" or "honor" in the Christian vernacular). The definition is claimed to summarize the acts of
Jesus' ministry, which is taken as a model for all ministries. The motivation is said to be God's will, plainly stated throughout the
Bible, including the
Old Testament (see below).
