Hey guys, my name is Johnny Artivannis, and this is Dialin. In this episode, I sit down with Brooks Bucer, the president of Radius International, and ask him an important question.

0:10.9

In Matthew 28, Jesus commissions all of his followers to go and make disciples of all of the nations.

0:17.8

All of the nations is what Jesus says. And so there's a global work that Jesus is doing.

0:23.0

He says he's building his church in Matthew 16 and that church is going to be global. So every

0:27.8

single Christian has been commissioned to be a part of this global work that Jesus has commissioned

0:32.6

us to be a part of. But the question is, what is my part in that? If I'm not a missionary necessarily, how can I as a businessman,

0:40.9

a teacher, a lawyer, a nurse, or a doctor be a part of what God is doing globally? That's what

0:47.3

Brooks is going to answer in this episode. You're not going to want to miss it. Let's dial in.

1:00.4

Brooks, thanks for sitting down with me.

1:05.6

I remember reading in high school, the biography and the journals of William Carey.

1:13.0

1:13.9

Either way, our hands are bloodied.

1:16.8

And he speaks to that regardless of whether or not you or I go actually overseas, everyone

1:23.6

is called to be a part of God's global mission.

1:38.3

But often today, people are fairly divorced outside of maybe a monthly payment that they give to a missionary from what God is actually doing. So what does it look like for someone here in America or in a Western context to actually hold the rope?

1:47.8

What is God's design for a businessman who's involved in his local church in the United States

1:54.8

to hold the rope and to give his life for God's global mission even if he's not actually

1:59.8

going?

2:04.6

Yeah, that's such a good question. There's so many saints, Christians in the church, faithful church members that I think are going to be lauded at that great day when we gather around the throne and we realize what they did to see the gospel go to

2:19.6

places where it's never been before. And the only thing that I can maybe kind of draw people or

2:25.5

make it simple is just from our own situation. We had what was called a partnership group where we

2:31.3

had five families and they were basically our mouth, our ears,
