This morning we are returning to an annual sermon series we refer to as our New Year Essentials. These sermons address subjects to which we must repeatedly return for the glory of God and the transformation of lives. These are different sermons, taking different angles, on issues we need to come back to again-and-again. Today, we’ll hear from Brooks Buser, the president of Radius International and DCC’s main missions training partner, on missions and the local church.
