Invest In An Experience Trip
I know it would be really easy to just simply tell you the cost, financially to go on an experience trip, but it is more than a financial commitment… it’s an investment.
The investment you will make to obey what God has asked of us in Matthew 28: 19-20 to “GO and make disciples of every nation…” It’s an investment that will not only impact your life but it will impact the lives of every person and every place you serve. You have the opportunity to BREATHE LIFE and HOPE into the world; into the countries, cities, communities and churches you go into.
Surrender, Sacrifice, and Go
By coming on an Experience Trip you are able to give your TIME, your TALENT and your TREASURE. I want to focus for a moment on giving your treasure. While talking about the COST to go on an Experience Trip it can be easy to see how you would invest your treasure. But it’s not always easy to make the sacrifice necessary to GIVE and GO. It’s a sacrifice to take time away from work, your family and your normal routine; to step out to love and serve others. It can look like cutting back on that daily run to the coffee shop or that extra night eating out and putting those dollars aside to put towards your goal to go on the trip. It can also look like working hard to raise your support, stepping out in Faith and believing that God will provide as you obey and choose to go.
Sometimes you can’t always GO but you may have the opportunity to GIVE to someone else to support them so that they can GO. In choosing to give you also have the opportunity to invest. Your investment to give generously will make an impact and a difference in what happens on an experience trip. Your generosity and support towards an experience trip gives you the opportunity to be involved in serving the young, lost, poor and elderly, developing young leaders and multiply the church. Giving your treasure generously is making a difference.
“For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.” – Luke 12:34
