Why do churches send people out on mission trips?

❓ Why do churches keep sending people out on mission trips—and why does it always feel like the same pattern? Nate and Pastor Joseph break it down with honesty, humor, and a little sarcasm in this clip from Episode 149 – Mission Trips: Blessings, Bugs, and Burnout.

From fundraising struggles to church culture, they dive into the real reasons behind short-term Christian missions—and why it doesn’t always look the way people expect. If you’ve ever wondered whether mission trips are about spreading faith, helping communities, or just checking a church box, this conversation is for you.
