Are you preparing to take the gospel to the nations?
You’ve said “yes” to God’s call to go, and now you will pack up your things and step into the unknown of a new location, people, and culture. The following years will likely include great joy, frustration, homesickness, difficulty, and excitement. In this book, ten men who have served in missions in various ways share what they wish they had known before they began.
This book is a handbook for entering the mission field, including essays on: Discerning Your Calling; Leaving What You Love; Identity and Task; Integrity and Accountability; Serving Well as a Team; Prayer and Evangelism; Going Single; Family & Mission; The Fellowship of the Suffering; Spiritual Patterns of a Missionary.
