Editor’s Note: The gospel is to go across the street and around the world. Dr. Jonathan Master persuasively reminds us that our reformed tradition has always been zealous for evangelism and missions. But zeal is not enough. We must send out godly men who are full of love for their Savior. Healthy churches send out godly men to proclaim the gospel to the lost across the world. While many obstacles arise, we need to be on guard against these obstacles and endure in the task of faithful missions. We need to be watchful against the temptations of the world that will chip away against our zeal for the Lord and making known His name.
