Why send missionaries "over there"?


Listen Later

"There are so many unsaved people here in the United States. Why should we send missionaries to other countries?" As American becomes increasingly post-Christian, this view seems more reasonable. 

Calvary’s Dr. Joshua Paxton invited Matthew Ellison, President of Sixteen:Fifteen, to discuss this important question. Ellison has a different perspective. Ellison said, “Why are we going ‘there’? It’s because there are people without access to the gospel. Be the church where you’re at, but we need to raise up those who will take the church where it isn’t.”
