My Thoughts So Far<br />

On-the-field missionaries need to regularly talk and pray with<br />

friends, prayer partners, and counselors about being single, about<br />

being married, or about raising children in the practicalities of<br />

mission life. Even before committing to a life of mission service,<br />

it’s a good idea to get the input of a leader in your local church<br />

on this chapter’s questions. As you answer the relevant questions,<br />

ask the Holy Spirit to guide you, through God’s Word and through<br />

prayer. Answer each question in light of what you currently understand<br />

from God.<br />
