The Urgency & The Undertaking

Today we started our fall semester with the challenge of the "The Urgency and The Undertaking".  As we think of the Vision of "Reaching the Least Reached with the Gospel" it is quite an undertaking.  If it was easy to leave our families,  the comforts of North America, go over seas to learn  another language (or two), live in foreign country in another culture more Christians would be doing it.   We were challenged with why it is important to see this vision through.  What is at stake if we walk away from the task?  What will be gained by seeing it through and what will be lost if we don't see it through.  We know that Satan will try everything possible to discourage us and our students from what God is doing here in equipping believers for the task of cross cultural church planting.
