Mission in 5
Welcome to Mission in 5 the Podcast, where I ask five simple questions to ministry practitioners to learn more about who they are and where they see God moving in their community. 1.Who are you? (Tell us a little bit about yourself) 2.How did you get here? (To your ministry setting) 3.What is happening at (ministry context)? 4.What is next? (What is next for the guest personally, professionally, or next for the ministry context) 5. How can we partner with you in mission and ministry?
