Short-Term Mission With Long-Term Vision...

Many of you know that I spend a significant amount of time serving in short-term mission in Mexico with Adventures in Life.

One of the biggest problems facing short-term ministry today is the tendency to not only serve short-term, but think short-term as well.

I have addressed that issue and included some thoughts on how the US church, by far the largest participant in short-term mission work, can reframe its thinking to a more long-term approach on my ministry blog.

Read about it here and leave your thoughts!
