The Sending God, The Sending Church, and You, with Steve Beirn
/How can churches send well? What do the Scriptures have to say about sending? In this episode of the Missionary Mobilization Podcast, Dave talks with Steve Beirn. Steve is the Global Ministries Pastor at Calvary Church in Lancaster, Pennsylvania and has also served on the board of TEAM for 18 years.

In your book, Well Sent, you write about the process of sending & how it is heavily emphasized in the Scriptures. Could you elaborate on that?
What kind of sending does Matthew 28:18-20 imply?
What is significant to learn about the sending community of Acts 13:1-3?
What are the characteristics of a healthy sending church?
When it comes to missions & sending, how can churches be inactive, reactive, or proactive?
