In episode 330 of Missions Incorporated, host Jesse Schreck, a full-time missionary in Italy since 2007, explores the critical role of missionary advocates. Based on a blog post from Practical Missions Cohort, this episode highlights how churches and individuals back home can "hold the rope" by supporting missionaries through prayer, communication, and tangible help. Jesse discusses the challenges of limited resources and isolation faced by missionaries in Italy, where biblical churches are scarce, and shares practical ways to advocate effectively. The episode also includes updates on a mission facility fundraiser, a call for volunteers, and a heartfelt reflection on the recent passing of Jesse’s father-in-law. Tune in to learn how you can make a lasting impact on the Great Commission without leaving home. Appreciate this content?

Welcome to Episode 329 of Missions Incorporated, the podcast by Practical Missions Cohort, where we dive into the heart of missions work, church planting, and living devoted to Christ. In this episode, titled "No Room for Passivity: Living Devoted to the True Christ," missionary Jesse Schreck shares a powerful sermon preached to brothers and sisters at a US Army base in Italy, based on 2 Corinthians 11:1-6. Join us as Jesse unpacks the Apostle Paul’s bold defense against false "super apostles" who slandered his ministry and threatened to lead the Corinthian believers astray from a pure and sincere devotion to Christ. This message challenges us to reject passivity, stand firm in truth, and live faithfully for God’s glory. Learn how Paul’s example speaks to us today, encouraging believers to pursue truth with zeal and remain devoted to the true Christ. Jesse also shares ministry updates, including opportunities to get involved through vision trips, a mission facility fundraiser, short-term mission trips, and roles like missionary advocate, podcast producer, or admin assistant. Discover how you can play a tangible role in reaching Italy for Christ, where less than 0.6% of the population are evangelical believers. Appreciate this content?

This video clip from the Missions Incorporated podcast episode 315 examines a shocking statistic from J.D. Payne’s book on missions: only 0.1% of the church’s annual income is allocated to evangelizing unreached peoples in countries with less than 50% evangelization. While billions support pastoral ministry in already evangelized regions, places like Italy, with less than 1% evangelical presence, receive minimal resources. The video critiques the church’s stewardship, highlighting misallocated funds and the urgent need to redirect mission support to areas desperate for the gospel. Appreciate this content?

This inspiring video draws from Isaiah 55:10-11 to remind us that God's Word always accomplishes His purpose, like rain watering the earth. It encourages perseverance in sharing the Gospel, even in challenging places like Italy, where results may not come quickly. Comparing the process to cultivating barren land, the message urges believers to keep sowing, watering, and trusting God’s timing, never giving up on reaching the lost. Appreciate this content?
