348: Short-term Missions Trips that Make Sense
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In this episode, we explore the strategic impact of short-term missions and the critical need for a shift toward gospel-centered ministry. While the U.S. church invests billions in short-term trips, only a fraction of those resources reaches unreached peoples with the gospel. We discuss the distinction between humanitarian aid and biblical missions—focusing on evangelism, church planting, and disciple-making in places like Italy, where the evangelical presence is less than 1%.
We also share key takeaways from our recent short-term cohort, including how intentional evangelism can revive a dry soul and the vital role of financial stewardship in advancing the Great Commission. Plus, get the latest updates on our new Missions Academia courses and the vision for a church plant in Bassano.
