In the CME Church and other traditional African-American denominations,
we have an organization called the Women’s Missionary Society and we have an
expression: “Everyone is a missionary.” But in our churches, being a “missionary”
doesn’t always mean what you might think it means. So what does being a missionary mean TO GOD?
Originally delivered at Bass Tabernacle CME Church for the Tuscaloosa
District of the Women’s Missionary Societies, this message poses the question: WHAT KIND OF MISSIONARY ARE YOU?
It’s not a question for certain groups in the church, but it is a
question that EVERY Christian must personally ask an answer.
So, listen well.
