by Stanley R. Foster (Author)
Over three decades passed between when the Lord first spoke to Stanley Foster about missions and when he actually entered missionary service. As the Lord's call on his life became progressively stronger over time, Foster knew where God wanted him to go, but was frightened to take the big step toward his calling. He was not prepared to leave his job and enter ministry-until a very clear sign from the Lord suddenly propelled him toward a new and exciting adventure in life.
In a resource manual tailored for those interested in missionary work, Foster shares a glimpse into his spiritual journey while tracing his personal experiences and important life lessons beginning with the call, his preparation, and his service in several countries that included Ukraine, Russia, Hungary, Israel, England, and mainland China. Within his roadmap, Foster offers insight on how to recognize the call, develop a ministry support team, and prepare for surprises down the road as well as mistakes to avoid, spiritual truths to embrace, and other helpful wisdom that will ensure the outreach experience is memorable.
An Adventure in Missions is a guide that shares personal stories and timeless wisdom intended for anyone ready to embark on an exciting adventure into missionary work.
