When adventure calls in the name of the Great Commission, we often rely on faith alone. There are some practical steps you can take in advance, however, to prepare for the unexpected.
Guest Shelvie Burks during a mission trip to Ireland, faced a  medical emergency that required a major surgery. In conversation with host Helen Todd, Shelby recounts the harrowing experience of breaking her hip abroad and the saving grace of having the right travel and medical insurance in place. Her tale is a reminder of the unpredictable nature of international travel, and the critical importance of preparation and faith when adversity strikes. It also highlights the fact that she had an opportunity to share the Gospel even in the midst of a crisis.

Alongside Shelvie's powerful testimony, you hear from James Pruss, an expert in travel and medical insurance for missionaries, who sheds light on the often-overlooked intricacies of securing comprehensive coverage.  He shares practical advice on what to look for in proposed policies, what do you need to make a claim and what are the most important but often overlooked reasons to aquire protection before you travel.
