Rethinking Mission Trips with Mekdes Haddis
Episode 169
Sunday, 7 June, 2026
Thinking about mission trips might excite you or it might make you nervous that God will call you to sacrifice more than you have planned. This conversation explores the mission field that doesn’t require travel. Mekdes Haddis shares her story of growing up in Ethiopia, coming to the states for college, and quickly realizing how the western church approaches global mission work - often without the input of people who know the culture, language and landscape. This episode is for anyone interested in loving their neighbor locally or globally, while asking better questions about what help looks like and how to offer it with curiosity, humility and human dignity. Share this with a ministry leader to encourage their outreach to have an even greater impact.
