Which body advises the International Executive Council on issues of international concern?

• A. International Council
• B. World Missions Board
• C. Director of World Missions
• D. Assistant Director of World Missions

Answer: (A)

In governance, an international organization uses a body that provides broad, globally informed guidance to its leadership. The International Council is designed to advise the International Executive Council on issues that cross regional boundaries and affect the whole fellowship. This gives the IEC a worldwide perspective when making decisions about international concerns, beyond the scope of any single region or program.

In contrast, the World Missions Board and the leaders of World Missions focus on planning, implementing, and managing mission activities rather than serving as an overarching advisory source on international matters. Their roles are more program- and operation-oriented, not as the primary counsel on international issues to the IEC.

So the body best suited to advise the International Executive Council on international concerns is the International Council.
