Finances are where worship happens. What you truly believe is really shown through your credit card and bank statements. Many people desire to go overseas, but their aspirations get dashed by the reality of debt or overconsumption. We want to give practical advice of how not to fall into the trap of over-consumerism. Financial strategy can give you the freedom to tithe more generously, live with less anxiety and conflict, and be available to serve locally and internationally.

Many mission hospitals have limited or absent rehabilitation services. Rehab professionals traveling to mission hospitals for short-term visits can provide 3 very important services. They can provide direct patient care, provide education, and mentoring where no rehab services are available and can encourage and support the full time missionaries serving there.

In my journey, the Lord has taught me to share in Christ's sufferings and how fixing my eyes on Jesus has not only helped me serve Him differently but also how it has helped me see Him more fully and see His glory. In this session, you will be challenged to see Christ through the eyes of the writer of Hebrews. Discovering how we might remain fixed on him as we transform the way we see our calling, our ministry journeys and ultimately how we can be formed to glorify Him in all things.

2 Cor. 10:4,5. Spiritual warfare is a reality that all Christians, and perhaps missionaries in particular, will encounter. However, not all spiritual battles involve open power encounters with forces of darkness. Though these may receive more attention the more pervasive conflict takes place in our minds. What is the example Paul uses? To gain spiritual victory in this one area would be worth learning the lesson he teaches. But it is just one example of the war we are in and if we are able to recognize and win this battle we will find greater freedom to carry out the mission God calls us to.

There are tens of thousands of bridges all over the world. We cross them to get over to the other side. We often take them for granted and sometimes we marvel at them. The Great Commission of our Lord Jesus to take His Gospel into all the world is meant for everyone, without exception. But most believers hardly know where to start and how to effectively communicate His Truth with the lost. We can do so by building bridges to take the seeker across the abyss and into His light. It’s a whole lot easier than we think. And there are a myriad of ways to do so. In this session we will learn how to establish a bridge in order to help expand our Lord’s Kingdom here and on earth.

The healthcare missionary team is more diverse than ever with national, ethnic, cultural, generational and educational differences becoming the norm in many, if not most healthcare mission settings. The success of national training programs has led to highly trained graduates who stay on with the team to serve and eventually participate in leadership. The priorities, needs, motivations, work habits, etc. of different team members will vary between cultures, generations, and nationalities. How do we face the future of healthcare missions and not just sustain these teams but leverage them for even greater effectiveness in fulfilling the Great Commission?

As the number of refugees surges in the U.S. and around the globe, displaced persons and migrants are increasingly becoming victims of human trafficking. Healthcare professionals serving in either domestic, short or long-term missions can be instrumental in identifying victims and providing culturally relevant care to the exploited in vulnerable populations.

Most Christian healthcare professionals and students recognize the value of whole person care in stateside and international settings. Yet such care might be one of the most complex challenges in healthcare today. How is done? When is it done? Is it ethical or legal? Can I pray with a patient? Share the gospel? And if so, how is all this done with limited time? We'll unravel these issues and more.
