As we look back at the past and consider the present state of our culture, it is easy to become pessimistic about the future. But every one of us should be inherently optimistic about the future because God knows the end of the story. He will finish the task of gathering people from every corner of the planet. God is able to draw a straight line with a crooked stick, and we’re all crooked sticks.

The intersection of culture, theology, and missions practice can be a balancing act. In this episode of Missions Pulse, David Joannes interviews Alex Kocman and Scott Dunford, the hosts of The Missions Podcast. We journey back in time to uncover powerful truths about thriving on mission today.
