Description / Abstract
Though long overlooked as a topic of scholarly study, in recent years this phenomenon has gained the attention of more than a few writers and missiologists. Many decry the horrible mistakes made in short-term missions, even recommending that we forego the practice altogether. Others see no cause for concern and laud such ministry as a welcome transition to twenty-first century missions. Of course, the majority fall somewhere in between. Therefore, we first must briefly touch on a few key benefits of short-term missions. Then, the focus will turn toward examining the difference between potential pitfalls of short-term missions and the ways to safeguard against such mistakes. It is the hope of this author that throughout such investigation, we will be able to distinguish more clearly the role of short-term missions in a long-term missions strategy.
