Praise for The Mind of a Missionary

It’s been said that when it comes to missions, followers of Christ have three options: Go, send or disobey. If you are a goer, read this book. If you are a sender, read this book. If you are disobedient, read this book. I believe The Mind of a Missionary by David Joannes will help you find your place in the greatest movement in history.

— Matthew Ellison, President of Sixteen:Fifteen and co-author of When Everything is Missions

In The Mind of a Missionary, David Joannes takes us on a virtual adventure spanning centuries and continents with his latest book. His story-telling is a feast of verbal delights as he transports you into the minds and hearts of some of the most profound risk-takers for the sake of spreading the Gospel message!

— Ron Luce, Founder of Teen Mania Ministries & Jesus Global Youth Day

The Mind of a Missionary is a compelling read. As much as David is a masterful storyteller, he is also a practical guide. He lays out both the triumphant highs and challenging lows of life on the mission field, while always pointing to Jesus as the enabling Source and eternal Hope. Anyone who reads this book will surely be encouraged and better equipped to fulfill the heavenly call on their life!
