An Honest Reason to Become a Missionary

Looking back on the secular career of the retail industry and the 30-year mission of Bible translation of Texas and Wycliffe, I asked myself, "Why am I really a missionary?"

Does the business shrink or is it sacred to your friends? Do I want to work for God and do something for God?

I now know that my motivation to join the evangelist is centered not on God but on self. I think this is a way to create something for God for me. However, I learned that this is a wrong way of thinking.

It should not be to help us, but to be ability and will to make it possible to allow God to live through us. It should be under Christ Jesus.

Recently I have read the story in the book of Christ 's Free Ministry. When I saw the man sleeping in the hut, he felt the Lord told me, "I hope you will push as much as possible the big stones outside the front door."

Over the years he worked hard all day long and pushed rocks. He was exhausted and wanted to give up. As temptation grew, Satan asked him: "Why do you commit suicide?"

The man thought about this, "Lord, I have been working for years, rock music has never been moved, what was wrong, why did he fail?"

The Lord answered, "I have asked you to push the rock over the years, but I never said I want you to move the rock.I never failed .Lock!"

Over the years, I learned to promote rock music. Stones of all ages will accomplish their mission and ministry through his Holy Spirit. God is always loyal. It is only "continue". He will do the rest

To be honest, the idea of ​​becoming a pastor is not what I thought. In fact, I avoided this idea. I am thinking to marry and become a missionary. I want to travel around the world and serve the poor. I oppose injustice and want to tell people about Christ's love. I am keen on church, but I am not enthusiastic about the pastor. These feelings continued when I entered Troy College. So, I began working as a Catholic student organization and began participating in male Bible study. In particular, the focus of Bible study is a series of lectures taught to the church about the physical theology of Pope John Paul II - fathers about marriage and sexuality. For my romanticism, body theology interprets my wish deeply to be a good husband and father.

To be honest, no. My family is a Norwegian race and has strong connections with the Lutheran Church and can be generations of generations. My grandfather was a missionary in Africa. Of course he is an older missionary. In other words, part of his mission is to improve the physical condition of the surrounding people. I personally refuse part of his idea and the motive of what he is doing but the value of serving others is inherited by my relatives. Collision of humanist values

Missionary education is managed by the missionary group himself. In order to receive education, you need to become a Christian and acquire values ​​such as Western clothing. Western education opposed schools of traditional Borgovilla (boys) and girls (girls). It also opposes Bogadi (bride), rain ceremonies, traditional medicine and related habits (Tlou & Campbell 1984: 135). Therefore, missionary education was first used as a transformation promoter. This is to rebuild African culture.

The legacy of Christian missionaries continues to this day. In Southern Africa, most of the leaders involved in struggle for independence are educated by schools built by missionaries or missionaries. So far, ministry schools continue to play an important role in the education of children in southern Africa.
