a care services org for missionaries and pastors, is blogging “The Case for Missionary Care” over the next few months at
He invites readers to “sharpen his thinking” with comments in an attempt to develop the case for missionary care.
Missionary care is essential. Many come back, not expecting any difficulty adjusting but find things at “home” VERY different than when they left. We have developed 3 inexpensive Bible study devotional journals that are being used by both long and short term returnees with excellent results. (Coming Home, Coming Home Again, and Returning Home) All three are sequenced to the reentry stress curve.
