You are never more like Jesus than when you cross cultures to serve others. That is because Jesus crossed the greatest cultural gulf ever when He voluntarily left His heavenly throne and took on human form to meet our greatest need. During His season on earth, Jesus made a point of crossing borders with His disciples to serve people of other cultures. Before leaving earth He instructed His followers to go and disciple all peoples. This study is designed especially for those on short-term trips across cultural boundaries. Commit to framing each day with Scripture and spending regular time with your Redeemer. Observe the people you have come to serve—and those who are already there serving for the long term. Trust your Redeemer to work in you and through you on this trip. You are going to have an amazing journey!

The Bible begins with, “In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth. The earth was formless and empty.” But clearly, that was not a problem for God. He merely spoke and the emptiness was filled with life, beauty, and purpose. This gives us hope that God will do his best work in the emptiness of our own lives.
