Indigenous: Missions Aimed at Training National Pastors Globally

by Bruce Snavely, Michael Woodward (Contributor)

The missionary endeavor is as ancient as the Word of God. Our task to make him known, to bring joy to the nations and glory to God, identifies us as his people. Our job must never change until he comes again to reign on this planet. Until then we must keep the essence of his commission as simple and straightforward as possible. There is nothing simpler than the message Paul gave to Titus on the little island of Crete nearly two millennia ago. May our generation obey this once again.

Reviews

[Ryan Martin]

A short, yet practical book to help churches and mission committees to think through the value of creating a mission strategy that trains up indigenous leaders to evangelize, disciple, and plant churches. The author gives a helpful guide to help churches think through the healthy balance of sending their own to unreached peoples and places, while also making sure that we are raising up indigenous believers to carry out the work of the Great Commission within their own language, culture, and context.
