The Spiritual Forge of Missionary Work: Interview with Joe Siekbert

Joe, with a candidness that's as refreshing as a cool African night, shares his fear of being perceived as overbearing and the importance of a life dedicated to a higher calling.
Turning 18 can feel like stepping onto the edge of the world, pondering the vastness of life ahead. Joe and I reminisce about this pivotal age, wishing for a tighter grasp on faith during those years. As Joe navigates through his reflections on family impact, missionary challenges, and hypothetical scenarios like a chat with the Apostle Paul, his discussion is a treasure trove of insights. Imagine what one would do with a $10 million windfall. For Joe, it's about channeling such fortunes into causes that tug at his heartstrings and exploring the misunderstood narratives of missionary life.
Tales from Africa don't always make it to the Sunday pulpit, but they're the fabric of our final topics. Listen as we recount the grueling effort of building a church by hand and the 7,000 brick journey that taught Joe the essence of perseverance. The spirit of missionary work, the lessons it imprints, and the faith that's tested and tempered like silver, are the cornerstones of our dialogue. And as we wrap up this profound exchange, We are thrilled to steer our audience towards a new horizon - our transition to a YouTube-exclusive presence, where these stories will continue to unfold and inspire.
