One of the priveleges of working with tentmakers, business as mission people, is hearing back from them during their vacations and after their returns to their homelands. We’ve setup a systematic way of gathering their experiences and challenges, and are listing them here. Number 9 is the least of the challenges, but worthy of noting, and of course number 1 being the most critical challenge.

The GO/TENT team looks at this information very seriously and then adapts the real life issues into their training and mentoring. Thus each course they run has new and updated information from active tentmakers which in turn allows them to offer up to date training for those being trained. Indeed, the GO/TENT team feels this is one of the greatest strengths of their intensive program in equipping people for ministry skills in hard places.

For an expanded version of these challenges, you can email us or simply attend one of our courses.

As you read down this list, do know that it is the accumulated experience of literally hundreds of active tentmakers. We hope this gives you good insights and helps you to prepare well.
