Questioning Your Mission Budget

Kevin DeYoung offers four questions for your mission budget.

Summary:
  1. Are we supporting 1 Timothy 4:16 kind of people?
  2. Are we supporting ministry in Jerusalem, Judea, Samaria, and the ends of the earth? ("Jerusalem: ministry to those like us nearby. Judea: ministry to those like us away from us. Samaria: cross-cultural ministry that may be close to home. Ends of the earth: cross-cultural ministry that is far away.")
  3. Are we striking the right balance of word and deed in the ministries we support?
  4. Are we giving priority to long-term missionaries?
