Description
Today we welcome Justin Mack, the Global Project Pastor at River Valley Church in Burnsville Minnesota to the podcast. If you are a missions pastor or serve on a missions team in a local church, you definitely won’t want to miss this epidsode! Ten years ago, River Valley Church decided to take this Great Commission more seriously and become much more intentional about it’s strategy to engage the church in this Great Commission. At the time, the church had just given a little over $70,000 to support a couple dozen missionaries. Fast-forward ten years to today. River Valley now gives millions of dollars annually to support over 270 missionaries and has a vision to raise up 500 long-term missionaries willing to give at least a year (hopefully a lifetime) of their life to global missions’ efforts, mostly among the unreached. So how does this happen? Join Ted and Matthew as they interview Justin, giving listeners a glimpse into one church's journey into the heart of God.
