If you grew up in the church, it's possible that you may have gone on a mission trip at some point. Your intentions may or may not have been noble, but we must ask ourselves: is this the best way to do missions? Furthermore, the history of the Christian missionary movement is fraught with violence, colonization, and cultural erasure. How can we pursue God's call to make disciples of all nations without doing immense harm to the communities we are called to? Thankfully, Mekdes Haddis is here to help. She and Kyle talk about the history of mission movements, what many churches get wrong with how they think about missions, and what we can do to be better "missionaries" wherever we are called. Grab your headphones and listen in!
