Critic Reviews

"The Mind of a Missionary is filled with the truth and grace of the Great Commission command. Joannes reminds us that the rolled-away stone—the power of the resurrection—can become all peoples' eternal possession and reality." (Nik Ripken, author of The Insanity of God & The Insanity of Obedience)

"It's been said that when it comes to missions, followers of Christ have three options: Go, send or disobey. If you are a goer, read this book. If you are a sender, read this book. If you are disobedient, read this book. I believe The Mind of a Missionary by David Joannes will help you find your place in the greatest movement in history." (Matthew Ellison, president of Sixteen:Fifteen and co-author of When Everything Is Missions)

"In The Mind of a Missionary, David Joannes takes us on a virtual adventure spanning centuries and continents with his latest book. His story-telling is a feast of verbal delights as he transports you into the minds and hearts of some of the most profound risk-takers for the sake of spreading the Gospel message!" (Ron Luce, founder of Teen Mania Ministries & Jesus Global Youth Day)
