"Don't think you need a lot of extra equipment for this. You are the equipment. No special appeals for funds. Keep it simple." (Mark 6:8-9, The Message).

A technology Goliath, a man who had no reason to fear anyone said, "What I really lay awake at night thinking about are those two guys in a garage somewhere." He was referring to Bill Hewlett and David Packard experimenting with oscillators who formed Hewlett Packard; Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak conceiving Apple; Larry Page and Sergey Brin creating Google. Ordinary people obsessed with an extraordinary vision, to make the impossible, possible. The question to ask here is: Do you have a heart for the nations but are paralyzed with your perception of lack – lack of abilities, resources, or endurance?

In the non-Western world, God's people tend to pursue their vision without regard to obstacles. They just go. They don't wait for exhaustive anthropological research of a people group — they move into the neighborhood. They don't hold back until the money is in the bank—they create businesses that embed a contribution in their communities and are sustainable for the future. They learn languages by engaging their new neighbors and assimilating culturally. The Gospel is communicated by their lives of compassion, by taking the Good News into the streets.

However, missional creativity isn't confined there; small groups are moving into cross-cultural neighborhoods even in large Western cities. Others are connecting with people online, while others are embracing those ignored by society. All are passionate about witnessing for Christ. Their "go" is not a pin on a map; it's a "two-guys-in-a-garage" mindset. They have a mission, a message, and it has become a movement.

There are countless "two guys in a garage" who are currently transforming mission. You can be one of them. Over 100 ministries have been birthed by people who started with OM. Go on a short-term mission trip and see what the Lord could create through you.
