Practicing the Way: Living as Apprentices of Jesus in Cross-Cultural Mission
In the ever-shifting landscape of cross-cultural ministry, sustaining a vibrant and resilient spiritual life is both a personal necessity and a communal calling. As missionaries, we often find ourselves navigating complex cultural dynamics, high demands, and spiritual fatigue. In this context, John Mark Comer’s book, Practicing the Way offers a timely and transformative vision of discipleship—not as a set of beliefs, but as a way of life modeled after Jesus. One of the book’s most practical and powerful tools is the concept of a Rule of Life. It provides a flexible framework for organizing our daily rhythms around abiding in Christ. In this post, we’ll explore a synopsis of Comer’s book and highlight its relevance for missionary teams. I will share some additional resources to help your team craft a shared Rule of Life that fosters unity, spiritual depth, and long-term fruitfulness.
