“What would you do to mobilize your church or students if there were no trips to take, no flights, no cross-cultural experiences, no crickets to eat, and no souvenirs to bring home?
“For many, their entire mobilization strategy falls on taking a series of trips somewhere. Is that the only arrow in our quiver to strike the heart of God’s people with His urgent global task? Surely not! Given that Jesus never traveled more than 120 miles from His hometown, I would argue we need to dig a little deeper into what mobilizes people to God’s mission in the first place.”
Mission trip canceled by COVID and closed borders? Or maybe health issues, money, or family concerns have you grounded for the foreseeable future. Yet you can be significantly involved in missions and pursue God’s global purposes right now. In this booklet, the Traveling Team compiles 101 ways to pray for the nations, send others, welcome internationals, and more. Many of the ideas include stories, usually about college students, and links to resources from a variety of sources.
Whether the focus on American college students is a feature or a drawback may depend on where you sit. But most of the ideas are just as applicable to people in other places and stages of life.
If you are a mobilizer who teaches, writes, speaks, disciples/mentors, or leads small groups, this booklet will offer you plenty of next steps and inspiration to share with others. Probably some you haven’t thought of. And you can download the PDF for free.
Usually, this sort of thing is used as a lead generator; you can have the resource if you let them put you on their mailing list. This time, no strings attached.
