What would you consider the greatest cost?<br \/>3. Share a time when you have felt it was just \u201cYou and Jesus\u201d. How did God help you through this time? What did you learn?<br \/>4. What challenges stood out to you as you listened to the missionaries share? How can God use you to help support full-time missionaries?<br \/>5.
