The Cross-cultural Worker’s Spiritual Survival Guide results from collaborating with dozens of cross-cultural member care workers through the Global Member Care Network.

Why Jesus Crossed the Road challenges readers to become “road-crossing Christians”—people who see border-crossing as a spiritual discipline essential for authentic transformation, both in their ...

EVERY BELIEVER IN MINISTRY Why do any of us do ministry? The answer is simple and Biblical. “As the Father has sent me, so I send you.” All who are saved are called to Christian ministry. Every believer is in ministry, ministering to the Lord, our fellow believers, and the spiritually lost. We are commissioned and sent by Jesus, just as He was called and sent by the Father. We should pattern our ministries after our Lord’s example of being light and salt. Christian ministry serves God according to His commands and methods and utilizes His resources. Christian ministry is not done to ...

And we know that God causes everything to work together for the good of those who love God and are called according to His purpose for them.

Our missionary brothers, sisters, sons, daughters, husbands, and wives would travel thousands of miles to share the gospel to people in faraway lands. They are willing to sacrifice all to share the love of God with these people. Times are changing. Now, God is bringing people from foreign lands right to our shores. Is this a new mission? What is his reason? Unfortunately, the present political climate and rhetoric are making it extremely difficult, if not impossible, for us to have a level-headed discussion when it comes to this topic of migration.
