<p>"Fly-over country" That's the term many sociologists and pundits use to describe small-town America, but Jesus has a different term: "mission field." In the past few decades, rural areas and small towns have been squeezed by a number of powerful factors: young people moving from farms to cities, a staggering rise in drug abuse, shuttered shops along Main Streets, abandoned churches, and further isolation caused by the pandemic. Today, however, the exodus is being reversed as more people seek peace, simplicity, and security outside urban areas. Now is the time to invest our hearts and our resources in this forgotten mission field. In this book, Gerad Strong shares the wisdom he gained by launching a multisite church strategy in his area of South Dakota. The process hasn't been easy, but God has blessed the effort to make disciples in what seems, to many at least, "the remotest parts of the earth." If you're a church leader in a rural setting, this book will inspire, direct, and challenge you to believe God for greater things.</p>
