Have you ever been on a short-term mission trip and felt uncomfortable, wondering if you're really making a long-term impact?
Do you want to understand what the best practices are when it comes to serving children, families, and communities in other countries?
Do you ever wonder if your current global missions are hurting more than they are helping?
Does changing your strategy seem complicated and confusing?
IF SO . . .
THIS BOOK IS FOR YOU.
Perhaps you're wrestling with a mission strategy that doesn't change much year after year--continuing forward in the way your church has "always done it." You want to see change, to set a clear and compelling global engagement strategy for your church moving forward, but you don't know where to start. You genuinely want to serve vulnerable children, families, and communities around the world with wisdom, excellence, and dignity, but how? It feels overwhelming at times, right?
We want to make it simple. This book curates some of today's best practices, principles, and people to give you the clarity and confidence you need take your next best step forward in your global missions strategy.
Through a dynamic integration of Scripture and science, you'll discover what the most current research says about best practices for global engagement in things like short-term mission trips, child sponsorship programs, forming strategic partnerships, family-based care of children and more, you'll be encouraged by how that scientific research works to affirm what Scripture has already established as true and right about caring for the vulnerable--and you'll be inspired by new ideas and fresh vision as you to take your next best steps forward in caring for the most vulnerable around the world.
