Why Missionaries Quit

50% of missionaries quit before they reach 5 years on the field. 70% leave for preventable reasons. Why is that? Are missionaries being properly prepared? Has the western church prepared missionaries for spiritual warfare? Are missionaries just arrogant people telling other people how wrong they are about everything? Why can't missionaries just get along? Two veteran missionary couples join me to discuss the importance of dealing with our own story, understanding spiritual warfare, and why it's so hard to get along.
