Understanding the call of God on your life can be challenging; how much more so when contemplating international cross-cultural ministry. Both short- and long-term assignments require steps of faith. Many who have ventured into the international harvest have returned home feeling defeated, wondering if they have somehow missed the will of God. They found that they were ill-prepared for basic life skills in another country and culture.

Preparing for the International Harvest offers a biblically grounded approach to international ministry by sharing proven ministry principles coupled with real life experiences. Ken and Pauline Grunden offer an engaging and informative approach to being Global Disciples who share the Gospel message in a cross-cultural context. This primer to international missions uses the domestic and international missionary experiences of Ken and Pauline to offer an encouraging practical guide to walk out your calling and manage the transitions of ministering in a different culture.
