November is mission month. What does mission mean today?
In episode #3 of Mission Network’s podcast, "MissionWary?," Mennonite Mission Network executive director — and a global missional and educational leader — Mike Sherrill shares his understanding of missions today as "with-ness," the accompaniment of people in their cultural context, being the presence of Christ, as one lives and walks alongside others in mutual relationships.
"It means that rather than bringing something that they need … we walk together as pilgrims on the journey, and we share a mutual discovery of God’s activity in the world."
Here are some additional tools to plan a Mission Sunday celebration. We hope you’ll find them helpful.
‘MissionWary?’ is available on Apple Podcasts,
