Career-Defining Crises in Mission is written for the missionary in ministry, to help them evaluate ministry approaches and accept those that place relationships above programs. Each of the 12 chapters takes a well-known missiological principle and explains it in a missionary-friendly style. Instead of focusing on theory, the book uses Bible study, illustrations, true stories, and practical suggestions to encourage missionaries to make decisions to interact with people before choosing a method of mission.
