Welcome back.
Sam Rima is the Director of the Doctor of Ministry at Bethel Seminary in St. Paul, Minnesota. [I’m an instructor there in the DMin cohort on Entrepreneurial Leadership].
Besides sharing his rather amazing story during his visit yesterday, we had a terrific conversation about emerging leaders that provoked a couple of questions. Here’s one of them:
Has there been a recent shift in recent years in the mindset of church planters and missionaries
- from one of going where the need is greatest or the challenges biggest or the conditions poorest, far from family, etc …
- to one of going to the places they’d enjoy living, where the quality of life is better and the conditions best, close to family or where they’d live anyway if they could…?
What do you think?
