Have you ever felt called to be a missionary? In this episode of The Missions Podcast, Alex sits down with ABWE President Paul Davis and E.D. Burns to analyze the question, “What is a missionary”? They discuss the role of calling in a person’s life, qualifications for missionaries, and how the local church and mission organizations can partner together to send missionaries well.
E.D. Burns is a long-time missionary in unreached contexts, Professor, and prolific author of many works including: “Great Commission Spirituality“, “The Missionary-Theologian“, “Karmic Christianity“, and many more. He currently resides in Southeast Asia working among an unreached people group and training ministry leaders to proclaim the gospel.
