Mission Trip Devotional Journal

For far too long, short-term mission trips have been focused on the person going rather than the people there. This has led to a poor theology of what Jesus actually said when he called us to the Great Commission in Matthew 28:19-20, “Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.” 

Through the EMPOWERED Mission Trip Devotional Journal, explore a new way of thinking about short-term missions–one that doesn’t create dependence, but empowers people for generations to come!
