“We must invest in people, not just physical goods themselves.”
“[Long-term missions] has given people the opportunity to see something and then say, ‘I wonder if…’ And I think that’s a really amazing and a really powerful thing for laypeople in our churches.”
“We’ve definitely seen revitalization [in U.S. churches], and that’s been one of the sweetest things personally.”
“It’s not easy to be involved in your community…but it’s so important.”
“I believe that when we give people runways to lean in, amazing things happen. People want to be involved…I think the young people in our country are hungry for that.”
“We can’t pursue the Kingdom without the King. We have to be focused.”
“We’ve been able to remain strong and hold strong relationships with our partners because we’ve developed that trust.”
“The question isn’t necessarily if a disaster’s going to happen, but when is a disaster going to happen, and are we prepared to weather it, and are we prepared to press it forward? And what a long-term relationship does is it really begins to address that question.”
