I love to read and hear from missionaries. Below are my Top Ten quotes from persons directly engaged in missions. They are men and women who are on the front lines of ministry. By the way, God has called each of us to be missionaries where we live.
10. "What's your dream and to what corner of the missions world will it take you?" -- Eleanor Roat, missions mobilizer
9. "Let my heart be broken with the things that break God's heart" -- Bob Pierce, World Vision founder
8. "We can reach our world, if we will. The greatest lack today is not people or funds. The greatest need is prayer." -- Wesley Duewel, head of OMS International
7. Some wish to live within the sound of a chapel bell; I wish to run a rescue mission within a yard of hell.” -- C.T. Studd
6. "God isn't looking for people of great faith, but for individuals ready to follow Him" -- Hudson Taylor
5. "This generation of Christians is responsible for this generation of souls on the earth!" -- Keith Green
4. "God is a God of missions. He wills missions. He commands missions. He demands missions. He made missions possible through His Son. He made missions actual in sending the Holy Spirit." -- George W. Peters
3. "Expect great things from God; attempt great things for God" -- William Carey
2. "Missions is the overflow of our delight in God because missions is the overflow of God's delight in being God." --John Piper
1. "He is no fool who gives up what he cannot keep to gain that which he cannot lose" -- Jim Elliott
