What is Missions?…is it that something that only some people do, when their church sends them to another country to talk about Jesus? True, those people are missionaries – but so are those of us who stay at home! Your own country, your own neighborhood, sometimes your own family could be your mission field. Everywhere we go, we should be representing Jesus-Pastor Jack Wellman
It is Isobel Kuhn a missionary to China and Thailand who said “I believe that in each generation God has called enough men and women to evangelize all the yet unreached tribes of the earth. It is not God who does not call. It is man who will not respond!” In the scriptures Jonah is such a classic example. He was THEOLOGICALLY correct (that when the people of Nineveh received the preaching they would turn away from evil and God would forgive them) but was wrong in PRACTICE and RESPONSE to God’s purpose for Nineveh. Jonah had a callous heart/indifferent even waiting for God to destroy Nineveh for wickedness.
“We must guard against pride, prejudice and indifference as missionaries and as people of God”- Rev Peter Oyugi
