Show Notes

"Missions is not about place, but about people." God has been writing Jean Johnson's story since the beginning. God began to soften her heart towards the nations when displaced Southeast Asians came to her school in Minneapolis. This started a journey for her reaching out to Cambodians locally when she wasn't able to actually travel or live in Cambodia full time. Then she had the opportunity to work for 16 years in Cambodia. Today, she is a missionary, author, and leader of a non-profit organization.
