Missional communities are incarnational, evangelistic, and apostolic. These three characteristics, and their implications, are defined for InterVarsity leaders and chapters.
Incarnational ministry describes how we follow Jesus by living out the gospel in the physical, social, and cultural realities the world around us to reveal God's power and love.
We use the term "evangelistic" to describe an awareness that the missional community does not merely exist for those who already believe, but invites skeptics and seekers to investigate and experience God and begin to follow Jesus.
