    EPISODE 2: Field Realities: 15 Things You Should Know About Living Overseas (Before You Go)

    Thinking about moving overseas someday? Or maybe you're supporting friends who are considering it? In this episode, I'm sharing 15 real expectations vs. reality insights from a decade of living overseas and watching dozens of people make the move. From the importance of choosing the right team to why it gets harder before it gets easier, these are the things I wish someone had told me before I moved to India with my family. Whether you're going next year or just dreaming about it, this episode will help you prepare for the realities of cross-cultural life—the good, the hard, and the transformative. In This Episode: **The 15 Field Realities:** Join a team with similar vision—not just any team (Peter, Daniel, James, Paul teams) Find a team with kids your kids' age—life is so much better together (the basketball vs. track team analogy) Everyone in the family should do full-time language learning as early as possible Go as slow as you need to go, in order to go fast later It will get harder before it gets easier—push through that first year (the culture shock curve) Just living overseas takes a long time at first (the story of learning to buy and cook food) Your time with Jesus will get sucked dry—and if it does, you'll flounder (abide in me, apart from me you can do nothing) It's physically exhausting to live cross-culturally Know the good news here, so you can share it there Strong relationships mean deep friendships for daily living AND deep grieving when it's time for goodbyes This probably isn't the only place you'll be—dream about where you'll go next Know who you are in Christ, and be who you are, or you'll lose who you are Get some grit—the depth of daily suffering requires daily surrender (Grit Week) Recognize that the enemy will use the same tactics, weaknesses, and lies he's used before in your life The reality of knowing and experiencing MORE—you will be different from everyone else back home, forever (the Matrix blue pill)   Key Concepts Discussed: Peter/Paul and James/Daniel ways to approaching global work Basketball verses Track teams The honeymoon stage, culture shock, adjustment, and thriving curve Why two hours a day with Jesus matters Team prayer and accountability The burying the chicken story (mundane daily realities) Third culture kids and the gift and grief of goodbyes Why you need to ask: "Where are the cracks in my armor?" Taking the blue pill—seeing how far down the rabbit hole goes   Resources Mentioned: ✅ Book: Across the Street and Around the World: Following Jesus to the Nations in Your Neighborhood and Beyond Get the full story and practical steps for reaching the nations—whether you're going or staying 👉 www.jeanniemarieacademy.com/book  👉 Available on Amazon   ✅ Neighbors & Nations Course: The comprehensive 6-module, 60+ lesson course to help you make disciples cross-culturally with ease, empathy, and confidence—perfect for preparing to go OR reaching the nations where you live 👉 www.jeanniemarieacademy.com/nncourse    I Want to Hear From You! Which of the 15 field realities resonated with you most? Maybe it's #7 about time with Jesus getting sucked dry, or #15 about being forever changed, or #4 about going slow to go fast, or #13 about getting grit.  DM me on Instagram **@jeanniemmarie** and tell me which one hit home for you and why.

  2. EPISODE 3: When Your Lead Pastor Isn't Passionate About the Nations (And What to Do About It)

    JAN 27

    EPISODE 3: When Your Lead Pastor Isn't Passionate About the Nations (And What to Do About It)

    EPISODE DESCRIPTION: Let's talk about what many of you are experiencing in your church: What do you do when your lead pastor doesn't share your passion for the nations, for global missions? Maybe you're fighting for 3 minutes of stage time on Sunday morning. Maybe you came back from the field and nobody remembers who you are—not even the pastor. Maybe your church treats global work like one of many programs instead of the heartbeat of the Great Commission. In this episode, I'm sharing four honest insights into why many lead pastors don't "get it"—and more importantly, what YOU can do about it. This isn't about criticizing pastors (they have a tough job!), it's about learning how to work within the reality of Western church culture while still advancing the mission. Whether you're mobilizing from within your church, supporting global workers, as aspiring goer yourself, or feeling frustrated by the lack of vision—this episode will give you perspective, practical strategies, and permission to create your own path forward. IN THIS EPISODE: FOUR INSIGHTS INTO THE LEAD PASTOR WHO ISN'T PASSIONATE ABOUT THE NATIONS He doesn't really know what you know He hasn't had the same experiences or exposure Give grace—don't take offense Solution: Help him have personal experiences (take him with you!) Story: Bringing my pastor to my Muslim friends house to give a Bible Story: Taking pastors on survey trip to North Africa to debate Imams   He's shepherding the whole congregation, not just the zealous few Most people in the pews aren't as passionate about the nations as you are Pastors are cautious about being "too narrow" or scaring people away Reality: Most churches have ONE missions Sunday per year (if that) Story: My neighbor who left our church because "they talk too much about Haiti and Malawi" Solution: Influence from within—integrate global focus with existing programs Don't add a missions committee—put global people IN every ministry Bring Perspectives to your church at the grassroots level   He may feel called HERE—focused on the local community first Many pastors confuse service/poverty alleviation with inviting lost people into the Kingdom He may not understand the 3 billion with least access He doesn't know about pioneering missions or unreached people groups Solution: Find the nations in YOUR community and live it out yourself You'll earn his respect through action The reality of money and ROI Majority of church budget serves people attending the church Staff salaries, electric bills, programs—these all need funding Hard truth: Pastors spend time where there's return on investment Where your money goes, your heart goes Solution: Go community-wide—you don't have to do everything through one church Give yourself freedom to create your own team, invite your congregation and others Parachurch ministry is okay! Little "c" church. KEY MOMENTS: Take a deep breath: You're NOT responsible to turn the ship around in 3 minutes or 30 minutes God cares, he's using you You can work WITH the reality you're in   The Freeing Reality: Used to do one church → then several churches → now hundreds of churches You don't need permission from your Lead Pastor to follow God's call Create your own team and invite people into what God's put on your heart   RESOURCES MENTIONED: ✅ Sermon Series Outlines (Free): Help your pastor preach about global work with ready-made outlines based on Across the Street and Around the World www.jeannie-marie.com/sermon-leads    ✅ Ten Ways to Find Ten Friends From Unreached People Groups Guide (Free): Practical ways to find people from unreached people groups in your community—show your pastor it's possible right where you are 👉🏼 www.jeanniemarieacademy.com/tenfriends    ✅ Neighbors & Nations Course: The comprehensive 6-module, 60+ lesson course to help you make disciples cross-culturally with confidence—whether your church supports you or not 👉🏼 www.jeanniemarieacademy.com/nncourse    ✅ Perspectives on the World Christian Movement: Bring this 15-week course to your church to educate at the grassroots level 👉🏼 www.perspectives.org    ✅ Book: Across the Street and Around the World: Following Jesus to the Nations in Your Neighborhood and Beyond 👉🏼 www.jeanniemarieacademy.com/book    CONNECT WITH JEANNIE MARIE:  🌐 Website: www.jeanniemarieacademy.com  📱 Instagram: @jeanniemmarie (DM me which of the 15 resonated most!)      I WANT TO HEAR FROM YOU: Which of the four insights resonated most with you? Are you in a church where the lead pastor "gets it" or are you navigating this tension right now? DM me on Instagram **@jeanniemmarie** and tell me your story. I read every message. And if you've found creative ways to mobilize for the nations DESPITE your church leadership's lack of vision—I want to hear about that too! Your strategy might become a future episode.   WHAT'S NEXT: ✅ Next week: Episode 4 - Ramadan 2026: Three Ways to Be Intentional With Your Muslim Friends During Ramadan (Fast, Pray, Party) Ramadan starts February 19, 2026 (probably!), and I'm sharing behind-the-scenes all things Ramadan from my Muslim friend perspectives, plus a Ramadan-for-dummies explanation, and practical ways you can pray, fast, and build friendships with Muslims during this sacred month.

  3. EPISODE 4: Ramadan 2026: How to Be Intentional with Your Muslim Friends (Pray, Fast, Party)

    JAN 27

    EPISODE 4: Ramadan 2026: How to Be Intentional with Your Muslim Friends (Pray, Fast, Party)

    EPISODE DESCRIPTION: Ramadan starts February 17, 2026—and this is one of the most strategic times of the year to engage with your Muslim friends. For 30 days, Muslims fast from sunup to sundown. No food. No water. No smoking. No swearing. And MORE praying, MORE reading, MORE giving, MORE openness to spiritual things. So why not join them in their spiritual quest, in our own way? In this episode, I'm starting with "Ramadan for Dummies"—a simple explanation of what Ramadan is and how your Muslim friends actually experience it. Then I'm sharing three practical ways YOU can be intentional during this sacred month: pray, fast, and party. Whether you have one Muslim friend or you're surrounded by them in your neighborhood, this episode will give you specific, actionable ideas for how to deepen your friendships and open doors for spiritual conversations during Ramadan. This isn't theoretical. These are things I've done myself—from fasting with my Afghan refugee friends to hosting an Iftar picnic by the pond in my neighborhood. And I'm inviting you to do them too.   IN THIS EPISODE: RAMADAN FOR DUMMIES: What It Is and How Muslims Experience It ✔️ Ramadan 2026 dates: February 19 - March 19 (30 days determined by moon sightings) ✔️ What fasting looks like: No food, water, sex, smoking, or swearing from sunup to sundown ✔️ What increases: Prayer (5 times daily), reading the Quran, giving to the poor, spiritual openness ✔️ Why this matters: Muslims are more spiritually sensitive during Ramadan than any other time ✔️ How your friends experience it: Community, celebration, spiritual devotion, and exhaustion   THREE WAYS TO BE INTENTIONAL DURING RAMADAN: PRAY: If they can pray every day for a whole month, we can pray once a day for 30 days What to do: Order the 30 Days of Prayer for the Muslim World booklet (adult or kids version) Keep it on your kitchen counter—read one page after dinner every night for 15 minutes Alternative: Sign up for Frontiers USA email series for daily stories and prayer prompts Options: "Searching for a Father" (fictional family experiencing Ramadan), "Hidden Treasures" (cultural objects central to Muslim life), "All Things" (themed prayer series) Why this matters: Your prayers fill the golden bowls that are the prayers of God's people (Revelation 5:8) Smoke from those prayers fills the temple in heavenly places (Isaiah 6:4-7) If ALL of us prayed for Muslims EVERY DAY for 30 days, imagine the impact FAST: If they can fast for a whole month, we can fast for ONE day What to do: Pick one day during Ramadan to fast exactly like Muslims do Wake before dawn, eat a BIG breakfast, drink lots of water, do your prayers Go without food and water the entire day (set aside 3 focused times to pray) Spend the hour before sunset making a big meal for your household Break your fast at sundown with joy and celebration, then pray before bed   Why this matters: You taste the discomfort, surrender, and giving up of yourself for a greater purpose You identify with your Muslim friends—walk in their shoes for a day It gives you something powerful to TELL them: "I fasted with you" The response: They'll smile, be pleasantly surprised, and ask "Why?!" Your answer: "I'm fully submitted to God, like you. I want to pray more, like you. And I want to experience your traditions and culture in a small way." PARTY: If they're celebrating every night, why not join them?   What to do: Ask your Muslim friends if you can come to an Iftar meal (the break-the-fast celebration at sundown) Best approach: Tell them you're fasting for a day like they do, then ask if you can come celebrate with them that evening Offer to bring food too (hallal) Since hospitality is a high value in Muslim cultures, they'll be honored you asked   Why this matters: It's kind of lame to go to a party where everyone is SO relieved to eat when you haven't felt the pain with them Combining fasting + Iftar meal = deep friendship and spiritual conversations You earn the right to pray with them and open the Bible together   Personal stories shared: - Two years ago: Afghan international students/refugees invited me to their home for Iftar - They prayed in front of me with deep reverence to God - After dinner, I prayed for them and we opened the Injil (Today's Persian Version Bible) - Last year: I hosted an Iftar picnic by the pond in my neighborhood - Laid out dates, nuts, fruit, juice, sweets on a red blanket under twinkly lights - They brought Persian food, I made a traditional Afghan stew from an internet recipe - Told them I fasted all day praying for them—they couldn't believe it! - This year: They invited me back again   KEY TAKEAWAY: May God show himself personally to Muslims all around the world as they fervently seek his presence. May God reveal Jesus as the way to God and give them his Spirit as a deposit for a future eternal inheritance. You have 30 days. Three simple ways to be intentional. Let's do this together.   RESOURCES MENTIONED: ✅ Inviting Muslims to Follow Jesus Course: A quick, practical 5-lesson course with 30+ videos to help you build bridges and have spiritual conversations with Muslims—without getting into arguments, feeling frozen, or needing to become an Islam expert ($147, or watch free 10-minute video and get $50 off) 👉🏼 www.jeanniemarieacademy.com/invitemuslims    ✅ 30 Days of Prayer for the Muslim World: Order the booklet (adult or kids version—personally, I use the kids version!) 👉🏼 www.pray30days.org  ✅ Frontiers USA Prayer Series (Free Daily Emails): "Searching for a Father" - Follow a fictional (but realistic) family experiencing Ramadan 👉🏼 www.frontiersusa.org/searching-for-a-father    ✅ "Hidden Treasures" - Discover ancient traditions and cultural objects central to Muslim life 👉🏼 www.frontiersusa.org/hidden-treasures    ✅ "All Things" - Themed prayer series 👉🏼 www.frontiersusa.org/allthings    ✅ Ten Ways to Find Ten Friends Guide (Free): Practical ways to find and befriend people from unreached people groups in your community 👉🏼 www.jeanniemarieacademy.com/tenfriends  Today's Persian Version Bible: A contextual Bible version to give Afghan Shia Muslims to read the creation story in Genesis Available on Amazon   CONNECT WITH JEANNIE MARIE: Website: www.jeanniemarieacademy.com  Instagram: @jeanniemmarie Blog Post: Read the full blog version of this episode at www.jeannie-marie.com/blog/41    I WANT TO HEAR FROM YOU: Are you going to do any of these three things during Ramadan? Pray for 30 days? Fast for one day? Get invited to an Iftar meal? DM me on Instagram @jeanniemmarie and let me know! I want to hear your stories and cheer you on. And if you try one of these ideas and something amazing happens—definitely tell me. Your story might encourage someone else to take the step.   WHAT'S NEXT: Next week: Episode 5 - How to Eat An Elephant: Doing Big Dreams One Bite At A Time   LEAVE A REVIEW & SUBSCRIBE:  If this episode gave you permission to move forward even when your church leadership doesn't share your passion, would you leave a review on Apple Podcasts?

    EPISODE 1: START HERE: Welcome to The Global Goer Podcast (Behind the Scenes)

    Welcome to The Global Goer Podcast! I'm sitting at a Thai restaurant in Arizona with my daughter, and for a moment, I'm transported. The smells, the sounds, the elderly Asian woman shuffling over to fill my tea—I feel alive, like I'm accessing a part of who God made me to be.
