How to Be a Powerful Modern-Day Missionary

And Have Fun Doing It

By: Dakota Pierce, Matthew Spurrier

Narrated by: Dakota Pierce, Matthew Spurrier

"Missionary work is difficult and boring" is the most frequent frustration expressed by preparing missionaries in our experience. Fun is a word that is rarely associated with missionary work, but that is exactly what teenagers are looking for. Even for many of those with strong testimonies, sharing the gospel isn't enjoyable, and it can feel especially awkward.

The goal for this book is to provide teenagers and other preparing missionaries with a vision for who great modern-day missionaries are and the skills they possess. Obtaining that vision is made tangible through specific challenges associated with each chapter's theme. Not only will preparing missionaries be enlightened by a vision of who they can become but they will also be inspired through the personal experiences we will challenge them to have. These experiences will build upon a listener's spiritual foundation, to also create mental, emotional, and social foundations. By applying the concepts in this book and completing our challenges, listeners can truly begin to have fun sharing the gospel.

Wonderful Insight

I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

When I received this book I thought it would be about how I could be a better member missionary, especially in todays modern times. While mostly wrong I do believe that many of the principles taught in the book can be applied to everyday life.
The insight that these missionary authors had to give quick easy tips to help a person preparing for a missionary mentally is wonderful. They address many areas that a missionary might struggle with which interestingly are also areas that as youth become young adults might encounter as well.
I’m excited to read this book again. I want to be able to pull as much information out as I can so I can help raise my children to be better prepared for the experiences that await them when they leave home. I also plan on having my children when old enough read this Book ale (and) try to understand it so that they may be successful in all their endeavors.
