The place of race in a person’s life reveals much about what the person believes about missions. I’m a believer that Jesus Christ is the only way to God. And so every resource available should be brought to converge on the task of reaching the peoples’ of the world with the gospel.

It’s funny how people who are able to reach the nations but cannot develop cross cultural relationships at home. It’s also funny how the very peoples’ who should have a burden to reach the nations often do not.

The winds of change are blowing though. More Anglos are desiring cross cultural relationships. More African-American’s are getting involved in missions around the world. The processes are slow, but they are moving. I want encourage you to not forget about the Great Commission Jesus gave us. Don’t just give your money alone. Be a genuine sending agency in your church. At the very least you should have one mission trip out of country every year. It will change your people. It will bless your church. It will do what Jesus said do. If your church won’t do it right now. You take your family on a trip. You won’t regret it.

Do you have a holistic view of missions? Not just theology, but practice?
