So many pastors today, famous ones and otherwise, are asking young people, and everyone else if they are willing to give it all and go overseas as a missionary. It's not a bad question to ask. There is no question in my mind that this question needs to be out there. But they - or someone - needs to ask, "are you willing to be numbered among the nameless believers in history who lived in obscurity? Do you have the courage to be forgotten by everyone but God and the heavenly host? Are you willing to be found only by God as faithful right where you are? Are you willing to have no one write a book about you and what you did in the name of Christ? Are you willing to live and believe - in stark contrast to the world around you - there is a God of the mundane?" The God of the Mundane , Matthew B. Redmond, Kalos Press, 2012, Kindle location 306.
