In this, the first episode of The Accidental Missionary Podcast, I share about what I hope to achieve with this new podcast. I also talk a bit about how I got to where I am now serving as a full time volunteer missionary with the YWAM International Communications Team.

With this podcast my desire is to encourage others to find and pursue the plan that God has for their life. Whether it is on the missions field or somewhere else I know that God has a plan for everyone who listens to this podcast. Hopefully through this podcast people will be encouraged to find God’s plan for their and to pursue it…

After spending the last two years working on the YWAM Podcast and producing 55 episodes I’m feeling in a bit of funk about it.

Don’t get me wrong, I know that God has called me to be a missions communicator to tell others about what God is doing in Youth With A Mission around the world. I am not questioning God’s call on my life, I love what I am doing and feel very blessed to be able to do it. The team I work with is great, even though they are on the other side of the world.

Despite knowing God’s call on my life I’m still struggling. One of the articles that I read recently had the following quote in it that really spoke to me:

The real battle is when the lie comes: “There is no point to what you are doing, you are not making a difference”

The audio recording that you can listen to above probably describes better what I’m thinking than my writing does. In talking with others both inside and outside of YWAM I am not the only one involved in communications feeling like this.

Your prayers for renewed vision and passion would be appreciated…
