David Bosch on Anxiety-Free Mission - Missional (1 Peter 5:7)

Source: David Bosch45 words

"Mission weighed down by anxiety is ineffective mission. We must cast our cares—financial worries, fear of failure, concern about results—on the God who sends us. He cares for the mission and the missionary. Freedom from anxiety enables faithful presence." — David Bosch. Missional: anxiety-free service.
