The speaker criticizes the tendency for missionaries to prioritize serving in foreign countries while neglecting their local communities, particularly in America. He argues that many missionaries focus on physical needs and healing, overlooking the spiritual needs of their immediate neighbors, including those in their own country. He concludes that people should prioritize serving their local communities and recognize the abundant mission opportunities within their own areas.

Missionaries Neglecting Local Communities

00:00:00 The speaker asserts that many missionaries prioritize serving in foreign countries, particularly in third-world nations, while neglecting their immediate communities in the US. He suggests that this prioritization is misguided because the US faces many spiritual needs and that people's spiritual and physical needs should be addressed equally in every community. The speaker believes that people should focus their efforts on the needs of their neighbors and communities before going abroad.

College Campuses as Mission Fields

He emphasizes that college campuses are significant mission fields, requiring more attention than they typically receive. The speaker contends that people should recognize and act on the mission opportunities readily available to them before going abroad.
