Partnering Well

Churches engaged in mission want their missionary partnerships to positively affect their church, and missionaries want their church to do things that support the mission their church sent them to do.  So how do missionaries influence at home?  And how do sending churches influence abroad?  Do church-based teams perform differently than other teams?  We’ll discuss the results of independent research on Frontiers teams and their sending churches, and explore the reasons behind the insights the study revealed.
