Are We Doing Missions Wrong?

Episode Description from the Publisher

Greg Gifford fills in for Todd to challenge the way we think about missions—and show how your job, skills, and even your season of life could open doors you haven’t considered. Segment 1 • Why are fewer young Christians heading to the mission field? • Could parents be unintentionally discouraging their kids from missions? • What if you could serve overseas without quitting your career? Segment 2 • Could biblical counseling be one of the most overlooked opportunities in missions? • You may already have skills desperately needed around the world. • What if your job could become part of your missions strategy? Segment 3 • What if you could serve people across the world without leaving your home? • Your language skills, career, or discipleship experience may be more useful than you think. • Before quitting your job for missions, Greg has a very different suggestion. Segment 4 • Think God may be leading you toward missions? Where do you start? • Why your pastor should be one of the first people you talk to. • Don’t know exactly how it would work? That may not be a reason to stop pursuing it. ___ Thanks for listening! Wretched Radio would not be possible without the financial support of our Gospel Partners.
