2) Missionary Marriage Issues: Free Download

Marriage is complicated enough! Then when you add a cross-cultural living situation and a cross-cultural ministry, things begin to get really confusing.   The nineteen chapters in “Missionary Marriage Issues” will help you navigate your way through the confusion.  The book is available to download free of charge as .doc, .pdf, or .zip files for your computer and as .mobi or .epub files for your Kindle or Nook. You can’t beat the price. Find it at…

MissionNext is the new home of Finishers Project. The name may be new but the goal is the same: to connect God’s people with opportunities in missions through a unique electronic matching system and to help them discover their role in missions through The Journey Deepens Weekend Retreats.

4) Global City is Offering this Unique Opportunity in Dallas

Here’s a unique opportunity for a person with an interest in diaspora and immigrant populations in a place like Dallas/Fort Worth. Global City has teamed with a local church to offer a base salary and a particular approach with immigrants. If you might consider such an opportunity, write

6) How to Print Joshua Project Unreached People Group Profiles

6) How to Print Joshua Project Unreached People Group Profiles

For those who were wondering how to print UPG profiles at Joshua Project (mentioned in our last edition at…

www.brigada.org/2019/02/24_25802 )

First, search for the unreached people group in which you are interested. Once you’ve found it, just look in the upper right of the page for the “printer” icon. When you click that icon, you’ll be given a chance to print the profile. It’s that simple.

7) GACX Writes that Momentum is Building

The Global Alliance for Church Multiplication wrote last week that momentum was building within movements they were watching. See their case studies at…

8) Check out "Missional Living" in Knoxville, TN

Will your upcoming home service take you close to Knoxville, TN, in the USA? If so, you might want to check out Missional Living. They are a hub for Righteous Rides for transportation during furlough. Minimum booking is 3 months at a rate of $13/day.  They also have a car that is available for those staying on the Knoxville area for local travel only. For the housing ministry, they have 7 host homes (hoping to grow to 10 in 2019). These houses are scattered throughout the Knoxville and surrounding areas. The rate for these homes vary depending on size and requested length of stay, but average at $15/day. Most of our housing requests are 2 months to one year. Find them at…
