Scripture… As We Live It #115
This is the 115th passage in “Scripture… As We Live It.”
Then after fasting and praying they had raised enough support and been approved by the mission board, they laid their hands on them and the mission board sent them off. (Acts 13:3 re-mix)
(Please read the first post for an explanation of this series.)
This is one of the biggest problems I’ve seen in missions. The sending is divorced from the church and left to a para-church organization.
I have absolutely no problem with cooperation I support it fully, but some churches rely on this and in doing so, delegate their obedience to train and send workers to some other group.
