In the attached clip, I share three compelling reasons why missionaries are still needed in our world today.

I mention a missionary called Wayne Chen as a classic example of the first reason, the crying need to reach the unreached.

J.O. Fraser’s call was as radical as Wayne Chen’s – from engineer and concert pianist to working in the remotest corner of China.

“The year was 1906 and the student, James Fraser, was reading engineering at Imperial College, London. He knew that his field of study held immense prospects worldwide and he knew that his own ability was considerable. But the pamphlet he was reading struck at the very root of his assumptions. The words of the booklet were very plain, down to earth and compelling. Its thought was perfectly logical.

“If our Master returned today to find millions of people unevangelised and looked, as of course He would look, to us for an explanation, I cannot imagine what explanation we should have to give. Of one thing I’m certain – that most of the excuses that we are accustomed to make with such good conscience now, we shall be wholly ashamed of then.”
