The Importance of Preparation and Training for Missionaries

I was encouraged on my way to the field not to have any formal theological education. I did end up doing some seminary training before I left. People who are approaching Christianity from a Muslim point of view just have an entirely different set of questions and issues that grip them. And I often see younger missionaries trying to share Christ about the same way that they would share with their postmodern friends back home. It just doesn't generate a response.
