Know What You Believe Before You Go

Mark Collins explores essential foundational beliefs before going on mission. After 25 years leading West Shanghai Baptist Church in China, Collins recalls his own pivotal moment at age 22 when a speaker mentioned China's long spiritual hunger. Before accepting a cross-cultural call, believers must solidify their foundational theological commitments. Clarity about what you believe regarding Christ, Scripture, the gospel becomes your anchor in challenging contexts. Examine your core convictions about Jesus, Scripture, and the gospel before pursuing any significant ministry calling. Scripture: Romans 3:21-25 Topics: Missions, China, Calling, Theology, Cross-cultural Ministry
