What on Earth Are You Doing?

Young adults exploring Christian careers need (and will appreciate) this competent and candid penetration of what it means to be a missionary in our world today.

Dr. Griffiths challenges those who may have not seriously thought about missions before, confronting them with the prospects of a life spent in cross-cultural missionary service. He also helps those who are already missionary candidates to assess their inner thdughts wisely and to face their futures confidently yet realistically.

The purpose of this book is to motivate toward mission in a persuasive and intelligent way through (1) giving a theological motivation rooted in the character of God; (2) indicating the necessary sacrifice involved, but also describing the cultural and spiritual enrichment arising from missionary service; and (3) carefully explaining the missionary call, showing young adults ways to achieve both inward and outward confirmation of their calling.

Michael Griffiths formerly was General Director of the Overseas Missionary Fellowship and presently serves as Principal of London Bible College.
