Is God talking to you about short-term missions? You may be sixteen or sixty. Perhaps you're available for 2 weeks, 2 months or 2 years. There a place for you in STM. Trust me, I know... I took my first trip in 1983 and have done numerous trips since then. What's more... we're currently on the field. Short Term Missions Success was written with you in mind. Participation in short-term missions (STM) opportunities has skyrocketed since the 1990s. Participants leave with great expectations which are shared by supporters and local churches back home. From correctly discerning God's will to navigating responsibilities (and fatigue) on the field, there are a few things you can do to increase the chances that your expectations will be met and surpassed. More than anyone, God wants your STM trip to be a success: out of short-term missions, He wants you to experience long-term growth. That's what this book is about. Here's what you can expect to learn: The W5 of STM (the who, what, when, where & why) My 30+ years of STM experiences How to discern God's call to missions How to approach the application and preparations to go How to share the visions and get supporters on-board Common mistakes and how to avoid them How to avoid common STM-related frustrations How to deal with reverse culture-shock or re-entry Hindrances to long-term change after STM How to ensure that long-term, positive change comes out of your STM experience About the Author Mike took his first STM trip in 1983. Just barely into his teen years then, his continued participation in STM endeavors, throughout his teens, planted in him a keen awareness of the difference a young person could make. He also became aware of the difference that such experiences could make in him. He participated in several other STM trips during his twenties and when on an STM hiatus as "daily life" kicked in following his marriage and during his kids' toddler years. He and his family were never far from ministry in the local church however and, like Paul and Barnabas, it was as they served that God sent them out again, this time to France, where they have been since 2015. Mike is a fierce believer in the positive effect that STM experience can have in the life of a young person. He should; he's the product of STM. Thank you for checking out this book!
