Short mission trips, like when Jesus sent his disciples to towns to spread the gospel, can open our eyes to God's heart for all people. Participating in missions can change our hearts and give us a bigger vision for God's work. Missions help some people receive a clear call to pastoral or missionary work, serve God more passionately in their home church, see God's work in new places and people, and better understand God's plan and purposes for the world. God's heart is for missions as salvation for all people, as Jesus was the first missionary who came from heaven, and missions is about God and his kingdom, not ourselves.

1. THE CHALLENGES OF
SHORT MISSIONS EXPOSURE!
体验短宣的挑战
路加福音 Luke 9:1-6

2. 短宣就如耶稣差派衪的门徒到各城各地
传讲福音，每次在一个地方逗留短期。
Short Mission trips are similar to Jesus sending
his disciples to the towns and villages to spread
the gospel, one place at a time over a short period.
“什么是短宣的体验？”
“Why short missions exposure?”

3. Mission trips help to open our eyes to see
the heart of God for all people!
参于宣教能让我们敞开视野
并使我们看见神对全人类的心！

4.  领受明确的呼召成为牧者或宣教士
it is receiving a clear call to be a pastor or a missionary
 领受呼召进入神学院或圣经学院
it is receiving a call to Bible Seminary or Bible Colleges.
 在他们自己的教会更热心事奉神
it is serving God even with more passion in their home church
 使他们渴慕与神建立更深切的关系
it gives them the desire to grow deeper in their walk with God
 看见神的作为在新的人与新的地方成就
it is seeing God’s work in new people and new places
 助他们明白神对世界的计划与旨意
it helps them to understand the plan and purposes of God
for the world

5. Mission trips can change our hearts and
give us a bigger vision for the work of God!
参于宣教能改变我们的心
并使我们对神的事工有更大的异象！

6. God’s heart is for missions!
Jesus was the first missionary who came from heaven to this world:
Missions is for the “salvation of the souls of men, women and children
in every nation in the world.
宣教是神的心意！
耶稣是那位来自天上到这世上的第一位宣教士：
宣教是为了这世上万民的救恩，无论男女老幼。

7. Missions is not about me, you and the little
kingdom around us but it is all about
HIM and HIS KINGDOM!
宣教不是关乎我，你和我们周遭的小天地，
而是关乎衪和衪的国度！
