Cross-cultural mission work is messy. It almost never turns out as we expect. Despite this, God still chooses to use broken people that know Him, from around the globe, to communicate His message to the world. How do we deal with the mess, yet cling to the mystery-- "Christ in you, the hope of glory"? We must expect the mess, embrace it, and engage in the details. We will unpack key concepts and how they can help one thrive, not just survive, on the mission field. This session is based on the book "Kawaja Bye-Bye: The Mess & Mystery of Missions."

In my journey, the Lord has taught me to share in Christ's sufferings and how fixing my eyes on Jesus has not only helped me serve Him differently but also how it has helped me see Him more fully and see His glory. In this session, you will be challenged to see Christ through the eyes of the writer of Hebrews. Discovering how we might remain fixed on him as we transform the way we see our calling, our ministry journeys and ultimately how we can be formed to glorify Him in all things.

There are tens of thousands of bridges all over the world. We cross them to get over to the other side. We often take them for granted and sometimes we marvel at them. The Great Commission of our Lord Jesus to take His Gospel into all the world is meant for everyone, without exception. But most believers hardly know where to start and how to effectively communicate His Truth with the lost. We can do so by building bridges to take the seeker across the abyss and into His light. It’s a whole lot easier than we think. And there are a myriad of ways to do so. In this session, we will learn how to establish a bridge in order to help expand our Lord’s Kingdom here and on earth.
