The Missionaries Podcast – Details, episodes & analysis

Sometimes we (as missionaries), we might have some spare time "left" during the week. What do we do, as a missionary, with those hours? What do we do with our talents during those hours? In this podcast, we elaborate on a great opportunity for missionaries to serve God in a very flexible and effective way for a couple of hours a week.

Working in missions isn’t always easy. But what happens when everything seems to fall apart—when things don't go as planned? In this episode, our guest, Kent Staton, shares a real-life example of things going wrong (humanly speaking) and how he handles it, trusting that God would use it for His glory.

If you lived in another country for, say, a year or more, and you do get back to your ”home country”, you might run into the situation that your “home country” does not feel like “home” anymore. Maybe not at all. You changed, your “home country” might have changed as well, and that is a thing you need to be aware of, in order to deal with it. But, is that bad…. Or is it a blessing?!

Today we talk about culture shock. What is it, how to deal with it, and what are things to look out for when moving to another country?

Why is it so important that you have your own knowledge of God and God's word in good order BEFORE you go to the mission field, and how do you keep that up to date while you are on the mission field and how could it be, that it seems that this is not a primary topic in some organizations, and how can we improve that? A very fascinating Podcast with Pastor Kent Staton! For more info on this podcast series, see: https://www.emmy.foundation/en/category/podcast-en/

How do you deal with money as a missionary? Not only on the income side, but also on the spending part. What are the pitfalls, and who is there to know? An exciting Podcast to say the least. Also, take a look at https://www.compass1.eu/ which is about Financial Discipleship and https://relationalfundraising.com/ contains an excellent course for missionaries on the theme of fundraising. Both highly recommended! For more info about this podcast series, please go to: https://www.emmy.foundation/en/category/podcast-en/

Vacation, leisure time, rest... how do you do that as a missionary or pastor? Why is it necessary, and how does it work? What are the pitfalls for you, but also for those around you? An intriguing podcast! For more info about this podcast, see: https://www.emmy.foundation/en/category/podcast-en/

In one of the Missionaries Podcast, we talked about if you are being called as a Christian to tell the gospel to others. The answer to that was very clear, so now the question remains... where does God want me to go as a missionary and what does God want me to do as a Christian to tell the gospel to others.

And that's a critical question and something that you have to figure out, with God, before you do anything in missions. (in whatever form that is) To answer that question, we made a special podcast for you. It's a long answer / podcast this time, but please listen to the very end... it's critical for God's glory, your future and it's worth it. Enjoy, God bless and if you have any questions, please let us know.

We often hear the question: are you being called by God to evangelize / to tell God's great news to others?
