We mentioned in last edition, GMI’s new book, “Help Your Missionaries Thrive,” asks 1,771 North American cross-cultural field workers 74 questions each about their job satisfaction, field-role fulfillment, agency support, and agency leadership. Since last week, we’ve actually been able to read the book and, it lives up to its name. Granted, there’s a lot in here about the “Engage” survey — so parts of the book will prompt you to wonder whether or not you should engage with Engage. But we don’t think it’s an advertisement. Instead, we think it’s just a matter of the authors letting the data speak for themselves. Besides — there is a TON of application suggestions that leap farther than the survey data will take you. Basically, the book is all about telling, in a lay version, how the survey informs professionals regarding how to help your mission org be the best it can be. Learn more at…
