Planning and leading church mission travel requires careful foresight and strong stewardship. Adam Clark sits down with Kurt Hetherington, Agency Director for Lightwell in Texas and Iowa and President of James Green and Associates, who brings decades of experience supporting more than 9,000 ministries.
