Perspectives on the World Christian Movement is a fifteen-lesson discipleship course that looks at God's purpose for the nations from four angles: biblical, historical, cultural and strategic. It is a third-party course, not a Psalm 67 Collective program, and it is often the deeper next step after an Explore study in the churches we serve.

Over fifteen lessons, Perspectives looks at God's purpose for the nations from four angles: the biblical story, the history of the Christian movement, cultural understanding and mission strategy.
For most Christians who want to understand God's heart for the nations, yes. It is a discipleship course for anyone, not only future missionaries, and it helps people decide whether to go, send or help their church engage.

How do I become a missionary? →What is a Perspectives class?
A Perspectives class is a local group taking the fifteen-lesson Perspectives course together, taught by multiple instructors. Students work through readings, weekly lesson reviews and a final capstone project, and can earn a certificate from Perspectives USA.
How much does the Perspectives course cost?
Perspectives sets its own fees and enrollment options, so check the class page on perspectives.org for current details. The local class coordinator can answer questions about cost, including any discounts or help that may be available.
Is Perspectives a Psalm 67 Collective course?
No. Perspectives is run by Perspectives USA. We connect churches and individuals to it because it builds a strong foundation for missions, and we help churches decide where it fits in their plan.
Every church starts with a free conversation. We'll recommend the level that fits, or none at all.
