On this episode of the podcast, Dave has a conversation with Cathrine and Vidar Ligard. The Ligards are the founders and executive directors of the Safari Mission. They are passionate about reversing the dependency syndrome that plagues Africa. They teach people to break the cycle of poverty by combining academic rigor and spiritual discipline. Their goal is to mobilize the local community in Africa, as well as equip future missionaries that feel called to serve there. The Ligards share some of the challenges with short-term missions and give a reminder of the importance of understanding history when preparing people for the field.
