Why Every Person on Earth Should Do Missions

Why should you go on a missions trip? This is a very simple answer.

Why not?

I've learned in the past month that missions brings the greatest joy one could ever have: the joy of Christ. Bringing the hope, and light of God to another country is the most rewarding feeling that is possible on this Earth. 

Would you like to know the second most rewarding feeling?

Letting people teach you their culture. I've done some pretty crazy things this past month. Rode in the trunk of a car, gotten shaved by a man in a tuxedo, eaten some street sausage (not the best idea). Honduras is the most amazing place I've ever been. Many Western nations in the past, as well as now, have thought of other countries as "backward" and "different". But they couldn't be more wrong. If anything, I believe these countries have found better ways to do things. Church is amazing here. You spend two hours in the service, and then hours after just talking with people, sharing stories, and supporting each other in Christ. Also, I'm amazed by the fact auto shops here can fix just about anything with a Pringles can. They don't do that in the US!

I'm so excited for what God has in store for us in the next 17 months. I encourage you to see what God has in store for you!

Then Jesus came to them and said, "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Therefore, go and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age." Matthew 28:18-20 NIV
