What do Senders do?

God has chosen the local church to be the primary means for fulfilling Christ’s commission; therefore, churches are primary in the sending process. At FieldPartner, we want to help sending churches to:

•  Affirm the call of one desiring to move to a new culture as a missionary.
•  Partner with agencies in assessing readiness for cross-cultural ministry.
•  Provide opportunities for growth and development in ministry.
•  Join in the partner development journey.
•  Provide ongoing care and support after deployment.

10 Cross-Cultural Mission New Year’s Resolutions.

Here is a suggestion. If you make New Year’s resolutions, why not make some that are cross-cultural mission related? Chuck Lawless wrote “If you’re like I am, your New Year’s resolutions are often self-focused. We plan to exercise more, eat less, save more dollars, take more time off, accomplish some long-delayed goals, and generally make […]

My Tribute, and Debt to, George Verwer

George Verwer died on April 14th, as I write only 8 short days ago. John Piper said that George’s “personal and global influence was inestimable” and that he was “one of the greatest missions leaders of the last one hundred years”. George deserves a second look. I wrote the facts of his life in a […]
