Equipped for Adventure is a guide for churches wanting to establish a short-term missions ministry. This book is unique in that it goes beyond simply equipping the individual for short-term missions by helping the church develop a short-term missions ministry. After briefly discussing philosophies and considerations for developing a missional ministry, the author provides detailed steps for planning, participating, and following up on mission trips. Since there are more details to international travel, the author primarily focuses on international missions trips.

Brian Howell provides an anthropology of short-term mission (STM) among American Christians. Providing a history of STM along with an ethnographic case study of a trip to the Dominican Republic, Howell argues that the movement is sustained by a uniquely Christian travel narrative that borrows from the anthropology of tourism and pilgrimage.

"Mission" has become, for many North American Christians, an ambiguous and often uncomfortable term. To many it brings to mind a past in which western culture was identified with the gospel in missionary practice and programs. Distressed with this history and uncertain about how to overcome it, many prefer to ignore the New Testament mandate that the church must be in mission if it is to be the church. Others swing the other way, declaring that everything the church does is mission, depriving the idea of mission of its power to define those specific actions of God which proclaim the gospel and build God's kingdom. "The church exists by missions, just as fire exists by burning." With these words of Emil Brunner, the author reminds us that to be the church is to be in mission. After describing the various "captivities of mission" which plague North American Christianity, the author argues for a robust and engaged practice of mission, beginning in congregations and extending to the broader community.

Churches and other organizations are launching mission trips with ever-increasing frequency. Don Richter describes how those on mission can become servant-guests who embody Christ's love. He provides a number of aids to support that process, including: spiritual practices, mission trip stories, key biblical passages, activity and reflection suggestions "for the journey". Mission Trips That Matter will inspire and guide groups to reflect on their life together as they prepare for, engage in, and interpret short-term mission trips and service projects. Book jacket.
