I would encourage all church leaders to be serious about being missional and help each other to do some of these things. | ||

Where should you serve on missions? | |||

Where I do want to persuade you when it comes to where you should go for missions. Of all the people who serve in Christian ministry, the GREAT majority serve in the areas where the Gospel has already taken root. Missiologists often split the world into two categories. The REACHED world refers to areas where there is a healthy church culture and there are local believers actively engaging the people with the message of Jesus Christ. Examples of these types of countries include South Korea, United Kingdom and Canada. This is no way to say that Christian workers are not needed in these places but understand that more than 90% of all pastors, missionaries and church planters serve in these areas. The UNREACHED world refers to those areas where the Gospel has either not been translated into the local language, there are zero to few churches or the local church has not matured to the stage where evangelism and mission is widespread. Examples of these type of countries include Iran, North Korea and Cambodia.

Love the Chinese Church | |||

I grew up in a Chinese church my mom took me because she could speak to the pastor in Chinese because her English was bad I grew up in a Chinese church where kids understood what it's like to be in two cultures I grew up in a Chinese church because God wanted to affirm my Chinese culture and heritage
Sometimes we can fit in so well singing the same songs and eating the same food It's easy to get frustrated running away from the strange and glossing over the differences I will never forget because I grew up in a Chinese church | ||
