Say Yes to God: Obedience, Risk, and the Work of God Among the Nations

What does it really look like to say yes to God—especially when it leads somewhere unexpected? In this episode of the SO THAT Missions Podcast, we hear how simple obedience can open the door to powerful kingdom impact. During a recent trip to the Middle East, Sandra shares how God works through ordinary people who are willing to take the next step, whether near or far.

She shares what it looks like to trust God in unfamiliar and sometimes risky environments, how relationships open doors for the Gospel, and why encouragement is one of the most powerful gifts we can offer believers around the world.
