Amy Medina is a missionary in Tanzania. She writes about how American Christians might need to start living as if they were missionaries. And she's not talking about speaking the Gospel to those around you. She's talking about feeling like an outsider, but nevertheless refusing to hole up in our little conclaves. She's talking about being limited in job options, and expecting that we could quickly lose our possessions. She's talking about praying for a country and being engaged with the neighbors, while still knowing that nobody cares much about our opinion or rights.
The article is a fresh perspective on how we are pilgrims in this world. In these turbulent times of post-modernism, her message reminds us of things we know but too often blow past.
