2 Cor. 10:4,5. Spiritual warfare is a reality that all Christians, and perhaps missionaries in particular, will encounter. However, not all spiritual battles involve open power encounters with forces of darkness. Though these may receive more attention the more pervasive conflict takes place in our minds. What is the example Paul uses? To gain spiritual victory in this one area would be worth learning the lesson he teaches. But it is just one example of the war we are in and if we are able to recognize and win this battle we will find greater freedom to carry out the mission God calls us to.

There are tens of thousands of bridges all over the world. We cross them to get over to the other side. We often take them for granted and sometimes we marvel at them. The Great Commission of our Lord Jesus to take His Gospel into all the world is meant for everyone, without exception. But most believers hardly know where to start and how to effectively communicate His Truth with the lost. We can do so by building bridges to take the seeker across the abyss and into His light. It’s a whole lot easier than we think. And there are a myriad of ways to do so. In this session we will learn how to establish a bridge in order to help expand our Lord’s Kingdom here and on earth.

The healthcare missionary team is more diverse than ever with national, ethnic, cultural, generational and educational differences becoming the norm in many, if not most healthcare mission settings. The success of national training programs has led to highly trained graduates who stay on with the team to serve and eventually participate in leadership. The priorities, needs, motivations, work habits, etc. of different team members will vary between cultures, generations, and nationalities. How do we face the future of healthcare missions and not just sustain these teams but leverage them for even greater effectiveness in fulfilling the Great Commission?

Does God want you to be happy? And how important is happiness as we pursue God's mission? We are often faced with the false choice between happiness and suffering, let's figure out a better way. In our work starting a health center in a large refugee community, we have learned so much from our staff that has challenged our "Western" perspectives on happiness. Join us as we discuss the history of happiness and the church and its relevance to today.
