Storytelling for Discipleship
At the Institute of World Mission, we have a passion to help Adventist missionaries grow as disciple-makers. Our hearts go out to the many missionaries who become frustrated when traditional approaches (including proof-text Bible studies) fail them in oral, storytelling cultures. We have prepared a webinar to help you combat this challenge.
Facing Conflict of Interest in the Mission Field
