Missionary Conference

This evening I had the chance to preach at one of our local churches.  The theme given me was "The Scarcity of Missionaries".  Taking advantage of recent studies in Matthew, I shared three ways to end the dearth of missionaries in the local church: 1)develop an eternal focus, 2) revitalize prayer for missions and missionaries, and 3) take the Great Commission personally. 

God saw fit to speak to several people through the message.  Many raised their hands to indicate that they were committed to daily missions, and one person indicated that he felt called to pursue career missions.

I was also pleased to see the impact our seminary students are having in the church.
