In this episode, Erin’s launching an exciting NEW series of episodes entitled “International Mission 101.” Beginning with the startling revelation that she is not, in fact, a full-time professional podcast host but rather a 25-year veteran of the LCMS Office of International Mission, Erin here shares her own mission origin story.

How did an unemployed physical therapist end up first as a missionary to Japan and then as a director of short-term missions at the LCMS? (You’ll just have to hear the story to believe it.)

As you listen, you may find yourself asking: How might God be calling me to mission service? If so, Erin ends the episode by sharing some ideas and opportunities.
