A Mission of Grace with David Anderson

David is a member of the Red Lake Tribe of Northern Minnesota. He didn’t spend much time on the reservation as a kid because he grew up in his father’s home, but a trip to a traditional native funeral on the reservation changed the direction of David’s life dramatically. He now oversees the revitalization of two churches on the reservation with his wife and family. It’s truly a mission of grace. That’s coming up on this episode of Missions Today.

Missions, Aviation and The Next Generation

The son of missionaries, our guest this week felt the call to missions early on. A conversation with his father led to him considering and ultimately deciding to go into missionary aviation. That decision led he and his family to the field. However, God had other plans for this young couple, plans for multiplication of ministry.
