Description
How can churches effectively use their resources for the Great Commission? Ellen Livingood, president and director of Catalyst Services, shares how churches can expand and improve their global outreach. Every year, missions committees look at their budgets and try to determine where to invest. How do they decide? Do they look at organizations, locations in the world or the person who wants to go serve overseas? If a church doesn’t have a missions committee, what are the first steps in starting one? If a church needs a fresh vision, how do they get it? Join us as we talk about the church’s role in God's global work and as Ellen shares resources to help inform the church's decisions and direction in missions.
