In this episode of the Be Disciples podcast, Dakota Smith and Kyle Morris discuss Dakota's recent mission trip to Mexico with the i68 organization. They explore the importance of organizations in supporting local churches, the criteria for partnering with missions, and the benefits of short-term missions for both participants and the communities they serve. The conversation emphasizes the need for a strong biblical foundation in mission work and the significance of making disciples as the ultimate goal of any mission trip.

Takeaways:

  • The i68 organization has evolved from service-oriented missions to a focus on teaching and discipleship.

  • Short-term missions can change lives, but the primary goal should be to make disciples.

  • Preparation for a mission trip should include involving the local church and writing support letters.

  • Mission trips require sacrifice, both in time and resources.

  • Building relationships and sharing the gospel are key components of effective missions.

  • The Great Commission is the driving force behind mission work.

  • Mission trips can help participants re-evaluate their commitment to the Great Commission at home.

  • A healthy partnership between local churches and parent church organizations is essential for effective ministry.

  • Mission trips should leave a lasting impact on both the participants and the communities served.
