What the critics say

"The Mind of a Missionary is filled with the truth and grace of the Great Commission command. Joannes reminds us that the rolled-away stone—the power of the resurrection—can become all peoples' eternal possession and reality." (Nik Ripken, author of The Insanity of God & The Insanity of Obedience)

"It's been said that when it comes to missions, followers of Christ have three options: Go, send or disobey. If you are a goer, read this book. If you are a sender, read this book. If you are disobedient, read this book. I believe The Mind of a Missionary by David Joannes will help you find your place in the greatest movement in history." (Matthew Ellison, president of Sixteen:Fifteen and co-author of When Everything Is Missions)

"In The Mind of a Missionary, David Joannes takes us on a virtual adventure spanning centuries and continents with his latest book. His story-telling is a feast of verbal delights as he transports you into the minds and hearts of some of the most profound risk-takers for the sake of spreading the Gospel message!" (Ron Luce, founder of Teen Mania Ministries & Jesus Global Youth Day)

Be careful if you read this book, it will change you.

I have thoroughly enjoyed and have been challenged through the mind of a missionary.
The performance of this audiobook has been incredible.
I recommend anybody who has wanted to understand what it’s like to be on the mission field and what drives a missionary to go and to serve our one, and only God they need to read this book.
But be careful, you might just end up in a foreign land sharing the gospel with those who need to hear the Hope that Jesus Christ brings.
All glory to God.
Thank you, David, for this fantastic book and your heart to serve God wherever he takes you.
Blessings to you and your family and your ministry.
