See your life as a mission trip!
Philippians 1:27a:
Above all, you must live as citizens of heaven, conducting yourselves in a manner worthy of the Good News about Christ.
Your Life as a Mission Trip:
1. Keep your primary citizenship
Hebrews 11:13-16:
All these people died still believing what God had promised them. They did not receive what was promised, but they saw it all from a distance and welcomed it. They agreed that they were foreigners and nomads here on earth.
Obviously people who say such things are looking forward to a country they can call their own. If they had longed for the country they came from, they could have gone back. But they were looking for a better place, a heavenly homeland. That is why God is not ashamed to be called their God, for he has prepared a city for them.
Your Life as a Mission Trip:
1. Keep your primary citizenship
2. Go to make things better
3. Respect local tradition, but hold on to who you are
4. Enjoy your visit
