Mission Misconceptions

"Missional" has become a favorite term among leaders in the 21st Century church. But what is becoming of "Missions". Stan Guthrie identifies six misconceptions regarding missions in a brief article in Christianity Today on-line, entitled: "Missionary Myths".

The six misconceptions are:
"There are pressing needs right here."
"Short-termers can do it."
"Let the nationals do it."
"The task has been completed."
"Maybe there are other ways to God."
"Missionaries have been poor witnesses of the gospel."
What do you say about these?
