Recovering Missions for Our Churches
[…] by the pain and evil in our world. The Bible consistently reminds us that following Jesus involves sharing in his suffering—often times the very opposite of safety. 1 The great commission still stands, and so churches cannot ignore our obligation to go into all the world.

The Challenges of Localization (5)
Pride
This is the fifth in a five-part series on localization of China ministry.

Becoming a Sending Church
[…] fosters healthy stewardship. Unfortunately, publicized financial breaches in China’s charity sector have created a tremendous lack of trust that discourages financial donations. Complicating matters further, supporting large numbers of cross-cultural workers in locations where tentmaking may not be possible requires pooling of finances between networks, as well as financially supporting individuals or groups that […]
