Politics and religion combine when governments contract out welfare services to church welfare agencies. This practice raises questions of the autonomy of church agencies, maintenance of their distinctively Christian value base, and the extent to which the Church is being co-opted into government policy.

There is a strong desire in local churches in Singapore for a greater ownership and control of their missions programs. This has motivated some to drive deeper in partnerships, but it has driven others to work independently, often taking a “direct send” approach-- sending their missionaries to the field without help from mission agencies. Mission agencies in turn are struggling to know how to respond to this trend, and it is unclear how they can remain relevant to the mission strategies of local churches. -- This qualitative case study was used to understand the characteristics of the missions environment that are impacting the agency-church partnerships and affecting the way missions agencies are included or not included in the partnership choices of local churches. Fifty-eight stakeholders in the Singapore missions system were interviewed. From this diverse group, some consistent themes emerged about the capacity and health of the Singapore missions system. -- The findings of the study highlight two key trends impacting the Singapore missions system: a decrease in long-term sending of missionaries and a trend towards direct sending by the local church. As a result, there is a growing gap in the church-agency relationship with less reason to come together. -- As local churches implement missions programs without the support of the specialist mission agencies, this in turn reduces the overall capacity of the system, leading to two adverse symptoms: Firstly, Singapore missions programs are showing a lack of cultural intelligence, and secondly, churches are not venturing to the hard places where the church does not yet exist. -- Adjustments are needed in both the mission agencies and local churches to find common ground. If they find ways to collaborate effectively, there is likely to be a greater collective capacity in the Singapore missions movement. Singapore has already shown itself to be one of the global leaders in missions. With a greater collaborative effort, the vision of being the Antioch of Asia may be truly realized.

Hope and Help in Member Care. Culture shock. Marital strife. Depression. Addictions. Disillusionment. Organization and team tensions. Family trauma. Medical issues. This is not what you signed up for when you pursued missions. Field workers cross-linguistic, cultural, and ministry boundaries, but they still experience the same mental health challenges as everyone else—and often more. When the missionary unit includes a spouse and children, the complexities multiply as each person undergoes stressors. Needing psychological or psychiatric help too often leads to burnout or worse. It’s time to let go of the stigma and embrace mental health. Missionaries, Mental Health, and Accountability opens with stories of scriptural saints who also struggled and still made profound impacts for the kingdom. Then, global contributors—comprised of an equal balance of Korean and Western writers—reach into the complexity of missionary mental health with the added component of accountability in church and agency support systems. Specifically, four important areas of missionary mental health are considered: 1) disillusion, discouragement, and depression; 2) relational dynamics and tensions; 3) contributing factors in missionary psychological duress; and, 4)resources and organizational structures that address missionary mental health. Every chapter demonstrates courage, personal conviction, and judicious honesty. Significant insights provided through case studies, surveys, and personal reflections will offer action steps for increasing mental health awareness and developing mental health best practices for individuals and teams. Written for field workers and those who support them, Missionaries, Mental Health, and Accountability is a critical resource in member care.

In recent years, church-related agencies providing child welfare services have been swept along in dramatic social and professional movements that have affected both the child welfare field and sponsoring church denominations. Church Agencies covers the unique separate and blended histories of churches and child welfare agencies. It advocates for more meaningful involvement by the church ministry in child welfare affiliates and makes valuable suggestions for improving programs and services.

Excerpt from War-Time Agencies of the Churches: Directory and Handbook The organizations whose work is here described are primarily those which have cooperated in the General war-time Commission of the Churches. For purposes of completeness, however, a brief record has been in cluded of the war work of other religious bodies which have functioned through war commissions or war organi zations. Agencies of a more philanthropic nature, such as the Red Cross and the War Camp Community Service, have not been included, although no story of the Church's activity would be complete which did not include the record of what its members have done in and through these agencies.

What would it look like if your church really took the last words of Jesus seriously? The Great Commission was not just a suggestion by our Lord, but an imperative mandate given to his followers. Missionary sending agencies are deploying workers to the field, but many of them come from disengaged churches that are not producing well-equipped disciples. We need a fully integrated global supply chain—a pipeline—that has disciples as the precious commodity, as well as an effective infrastructure to distribute and replicate them around the globe. Pipeline seeks to re-engage the church in mobilizing the next generation of workers for the harvest. This is a collaboration of forty different authors from churches, agencies, and cross-cultural servants. As people in distant places wait for a messenger of hope and salvation, will your church venture into the pipeline?
