What do Senders do?

God has chosen the local church to be the primary means for fulfilling Christ’s commission; therefore, churches are primary in the sending process. At FieldPartner, we want to help sending churches to:

•  Affirm the call of one desiring to move to a new culture as a missionary.
•  Partner with agencies in assessing readiness for cross-cultural ministry.
•  Provide opportunities for growth and development in ministry.
•  Join in the partner development journey.
•  Provide ongoing care and support after deployment.

I wrote the facts of his life in a […]

From Sports Star to China Missionary

C.T. Studd once said: “Let us not glide through this world and then slip quietly into heaven, without having blown the trumpet loud and long for our Redeemer, Jesus Christ. Let us see to it that the devil will hold a thanksgiving service in hell, when he gets the news of our departure from the […]

In view […]
