What Does This Mean?
1) Why does God want to prune us?
2) What does pruning do for us in the mission field?
3) Facing our own challenges to keep the faith, what’s it like for us to hear our Lord’s call to be his witnesses in faraway places?
4) What should we make of the reality that evangelical witness seems to be most powerfully expressed today in places like India and Ethiopia?
