Gems: There are certain values and assumptions that can serve as bridges or roadblocks in the relationship between counselors and mission administrators.We need to make a cultural shift in our language from an emphasis on teachability, cultural sensitivity, and biblical understanding which reflect a genuine care for missionaries by entering their world.I believe that the most helpful form of therapy on the mission field is a brief solution oriented mode, which is educational, goal oriented, and strength enhancing.
