Abstract
This paper reflects personally on the author's journey in global mission, tracing his own diverse road through formal education and the later discovery of other modes of equipping for service.

The paper engages seven critical issues; presents the International Missionary Training Network, a component of the Mission Commission, World Evangelical Alliance; and concludes with four challenges.
