Why a Balanced Missions Ministry
Today’s conversation is with Melanie Williams. Melanie is the Missions Director at Antioch Bible Church in Redmond, Washington. Melanie and Antioch Bible believe that a healthy missions ministry is one that finds a good balance between local and global outreach.
First, everyone in your church is called to missions in one way or another. Having a good balance of opportunities both locally and globally allows them to find that fit.
Second, as your members find their fit, they’re able to grow and mature by taking advantage of these different options.
And finally, never look as balance in a missions ministry as a ledger to measured. There are no cookie cutter answers. That means you have to slow down, take time to pray, and listen to the Holy Spirit.
