Have you ever been on a mission trip? Mission trips thrill us: the prayer, planning, camaraderie, and travel all stir us. Most importantly, our trip is focused on sharing Jesus and loving people! But when we return, we fall back into mundane, church-attending, risk-averse Christianity. What if I told you that you could wake up every day and live your life from the perspective of being on a mission trip? What if I told you the key to living for Jesus may be less a passport and a faraway place and more a latte at your local coffee shop? What if the most important place for you to live on mission is not the church house but your house? And what if I told you that no matter your journey or how inadequate, uncertain, or broken your life may seem, that you are just the person God wants to use for His glory and the good of others?Life is a mission trip--TAKE IT! I will show you how.
