Missions: Dying for Russians

Missions has not been on my mind this semester. More than on factor undoubtedly is contributing to this. But missions has been on my mind more these last few days. I've been struck by the presence of sin and its affect on cultures and life. Whole societies and whole cultures are affected by sin. Missions should not have affecting societies or cultures at its main goal. But the gospel changes people and can thus change whole countries.

Russia needs the gospel. Russians need the gospel. This may seem obvious but articles like this one by Dr. Mohler give the obvious weight. Who will see dying as gain and go to Russia? Who will seek the lost to save (and their children)?
