The Local Church: Mentoring Healthy Missionary Candidates

Greg Carter

2016 Mission Leaders Conference
Globally Engaged Churches

The local church committed to making disciples prays that some of its members will be called to make disciples in areas of the world where the Kingdom is not as well established. These workers will need to be spiritually mature, emotionally healthy and relationally secure to meet the rigors of cross-cultural disciple-making. The church’s mission leadership is capable and confident in mentoring its future missionaries in the critical areas of developing intimacy with the Father, building self-awareness/emotional health, developing ministry skills and understanding cross-cultural issues. Workshop participants will discuss these four areas.
