What happens when you stop waiting for the perfect moment and actually step out in faith? In this episode of The Babbler, Pastor Steven Dross shares lessons, stories, and convictions shaped by more than 35 years in missions and ministry. From growing up in a multigenerational missionary family to serving on the mission field himself, Pastor Dross talks about what it really means to obey the Great Commission, cross cultural barriers, and become a bridge to people who may not look, speak, or live like you. This conversation is about much more than foreign missions. It is about what happens when ordinary believers decide to go. Pastor Dross shares why he believes Christians are called to be bridge builders, why Pentecost itself was multicultural, and why the church cannot afford to become inward-focused. We also talk about: • Why missions should be at the heart of the church • Why you should not wait forever for a dramatic “calling” before doing something for God • How stepping outside your comfort zone creates opportunities for God to work • Why Peter deserves more credit for getting out of the boat • How faith often means moving before you have all the answers • Why prayer, Bible study, submission, and service are essential for anyone who feels called to ministry • How God can use small acts of obedience to prepare you for much greater assignments • Why reaching another culture sometimes means learning their language instead of expecting them to learn yours • What 35 years of missions work has taught Pastor Dross about miracles, resistance, spiritual warfare, and the power of Jesus’ name Along the way, Pastor Dross shares unforgettable stories from the mission field, including the testimony of a former witch doctor turned preacher, a dramatic baptism in Nicaragua, and examples of what can happen when believers step into places where they are forced to depend on God. One of the strongest truths in this conversation is simple: You will never see what God can do through you if you never move. Too many people wait for perfect clarity. They wait for a sign. They wait for a voice. They wait until they feel completely ready. But Scripture repeatedly shows people moving in faith and trusting God to direct them along the way. The Great Commission is still the mission. Go. Build bridges. Serve. Pray. Study. Preach Jesus. And trust God to meet you when you step outside what is comfortable and familiar. 📖 Scriptures discussed: Mark 16:15-20 Matthew 14:22-33 1 Peter 2:9 1 Samuel 2:35 Joshua 1:8-9 Acts 2:38 Deuteronomy 6:4 🔗 Connect with The Babbler: https://linktr.ee/TheBabbler If this episode encourages you, share it with someone who feels called to ministry, missions, evangelism, or simply needs the courage to take the next step.
