agree with:
"WE WILL be honest about what we accomplish on the trip by not exaggerating or overspiritualizing the experience in our report back. A short-term missions trip is one of many experiences in life that shape us, and one trip is only part of a much longer narrative that will continue to be written after our experience."
theres no need to exaggerate Gods job because he is already awesome. its like adding more water to a glass thats already full. God takes care of every single detail so even if we dont think what we do for God anywhere isnt good enough or exciting enough to share with someone else, then there is something missing in our spiritual lives, it means we're not sure God can impact people by sharing "little" testimonies.
"WE WILL humble ourselves before God as His servants, and humble ourselves towards those we are serving as their servants, too."
i love to watch documentals where missionaries are wiling to leave everything behind and be like the people they're serving to.
trying to not leave room for the people we'll be serving to compare themselves with us like "oh they hav money and we dont" or "they're so lucky to have this and that", and replace it with something like "its awesome we can meet people like us who love Jesus" because actually we are all the same, is what been humble for others is about. God created each of us in a certain way for his glory regardless of what we "own". and evon thou Jesus is the son of God and he owns every single thing on earth, when he came to earth, he humbled himself.
i dont really desagree with any, they're all based on true experiences.
