Today, David has a conversation with Barna Group's Director of Published Research, Savannah Kimberlin. Savannah shares some of the recent research published in "The Future of Missions". She discusses the relevant findings that Barna has discovered about the next generation of potential missionaries, and shares factors that will help increase a believer's involvement in missions. This episode will inspire you to communicate more effectively with Gen Z and Millennials. 

Some of the Topics Discussed:

1. Barna just recently published some research on the future of missions. Can tell us how this project came about?

2. How does the decline of U.S. church attendance impact the future of missions mobilization?

3. Your research found there are certain factors that increase a person's involvement in missions. Can you unpack that a little bit for us?

4. How are parents influencing missions mobilization?

5. In The Future of Missions you talk about a group of young adults you’ve named “supportive skeptics.” Can you tell us about this group?

6. What did your study discover with regards to the younger generations serving in missions?

7. What advice would you have for mobilizers and mission pastors as they endeavor to mobilize others?
