As seen in our previous course, ‘Avoiding the Pitfalls of Short-Term Missions’, research has shown that many forms of short-term volunteering actually do harm to the very communities they are trying to serve. In this course, we explore what methods are shown to lead to positive outcomes for both the communities hosting trips, and the communities visiting them.
Do we go on a mission to serve with our eyes open? This course will help us to go deeper in discussing the different forms of missions in serving the poor and how we serve them well in responding to God's calling
