Things they didn’t teach me in … (Part 2)

“Things they didn’t teach me in…” (part 2)

… Missions classes

1. Initiative and a team spirit trumps passivity and independence every day.

2. A good leader serves and leads in such a way that followers are willing to sacrifice personal preferences to reach the team’s goals.

3. Graduation from Bible school and/or seminary does not qualify you to be an effective missionary.

4. Longevity on the field does not guarantee ministry effectiveness.

5. Missionaries with a strong sending church relationship are the envy of other missionaries on the field.
