Have you ever wondered what it would be like to pastor missionaries? That's exactly the kind of ministry that Steve Henry engages in every day. Steve has been a pastor, a missionary, a sender of missionaries, and is currently a pastoral coach to missionaries serving overseas.
Denver and Taylor ask Steve about this unique ministry calling, as well as the topic of missionary care more generally. Steve describes the biblical basis of missionary care, the primary factors causing missionaries to return from the field, as well as best practices for churches who have a heart to care for their missionaries.
