Synopsis

The most recent April 2008 second print run of this 285-page comprehensive perfect-bound paperback features everything you need to know to organize a short-term mission trip with high-level Kingdom impact and across-the-board effectiveness. This insight-laden second edition also includes the finalized Seven U.S. Standards of Excellence in Short-Term Mission, in addition to:

• the exceptionally constructive 9-cell planning matrix, the MISTM-Grid
• your must-plan time frames (pre-field, on-field, post-field)
• your must-include stakeholders (senders, goers, receivers)
• ground-breaking, solid short-term mission theology (OT & NT)
• historical overview of short-term mission, including more than 40 case studies of churches, agencies, and schools which send STMs
• 16 well-drawn illustrations/tables which capture summarized snapshots of the critical subject matter contained in this book.

Maximum Impact Short-Term Mission can help mission trip leaders reduce unnecessary exposure (risk) and improve mission trip outcomes for everyone involved, by helping to correctly identify all stakeholder and their three time periods of short-term mission trip responsibility.
