Are we not all called to "Go and make disciples of all nations"? (Matthew 28:19) How many of us are doing just that? Where are you going and making disciples? Your workplace? Your friend circle? Another country? Your neighborhood? It doesn't matter where but we are called to do so. When I think of missions, I automatically think of someone in a third world country taking care of the poor and teaching them about Jesus. But that's only one way to be missionary and there are thousands of others. There are many people in countries around the world that do not know Jesus- including the one we live in- USA. There are many ways to serve others and share Christ with unbelievers. There are many opportunities right where you are. Do you have a job? Do you know anyone at your workplace that does not love the Lord? I think its so easy sometimes to forget about the call placed on each of our lives to "Go and make disciples..." and just support someone who goes to another country and lives full time in ministry. But I am challenging you that you can be a missionary wherever you are- you don't have to go to another country to live out this calling on your life.
