Missions Should Not Come First: The Real Source of Lasting Passion
Episode Description: Missions should NOT come first—Jesus should. When He's first, He "breaks our hearts for what breaks His." Increased compassion, information, and statistics won't sustain mission focus—only the Holy Spirit intensifying our love for Christ will. Focusing on all the needs led me to sadness, despair, burnout. But the Bible doesn't focus on bad—it focuses on God! Tim Dearborn: "Participation in God's mission is no longer somber duty. It becomes joyous privilege and adventure of passion and hope." Like Peter—look at storms, you sink; look at Jesus, you walk. Put Jesus first; missions will overflow.
Scripture: Luke 2:10, Hebrews 6:18-19, 12:28
