The Missionary Life You Were Created to Live

24 minutes

Living as a missionary is more about being than doing. Too often, we think of missionaries only as people who pack up and move overseas. But the truth is, if you are a Christian, you already are a missionary—it’s part of your identity in Christ.

In this episode of the Everyday Disciple Podcast, I share what it looks like to live every day as a missionary right where God has placed you. We’ll talk about how to embrace this calling in your neighborhood, cross the street before you cross the globe, and take simple steps to live as God’s sent ones together.

In This Episode, You’ll Learn:

Who the Bible calls “missionaries” or “sent ones” in everyday life.

How your missionary identity flows straight from God’s own heart.

Why “Go and make disciples” is not optional—it’s Jesus’ command.

How to start living as a missionary right where you live today.

From this episode:

“I have to be honest with you here. After living this way for close to two decades now–like a localized missionary–I don’t think there is a huge difference between being a missionary here in America compared to living this way in a foreign country. People are people. The biggest difference here is that I constantly feel two things pulling at me; my past experience of “going to church” instead of being the church, and my lack of faith that the gospel is truly good news for everyone and everything.”
