What role do resources play in PWCM, and how should they be mobilized?

• A. Resources are not important.
• B. Resources fuel training, sending, translations, and humanitarian work; mobilized through partnerships, prayer, and stewardship.
• C. Resources should be controlled by a single organization.
• D. They should be hoarded.

Answer: (B)

Resources in PWCM function as the fuel that enables training, sending, translations, and humanitarian work. Without adequate resources, these essential activities can’t scale or sustain themselves. Mobilizing them is best achieved through partnerships, which spread responsibility, expertise, and risk; through prayer, which seeks alignment with God’s provision and direction; and through stewardship, which ensures resources are used wisely, transparently, and for lasting impact. This integrated approach supports ongoing capacity-building, cross-cultural outreach, and dependable relief work, rather than concentrating power in one place or treating resources as unnecessary or something to hoard.
