Description

About the Book

A survival manual for people and families who are returning to their home country.

Book Synopsis

Just like a space shuttle struggles and strains to re-enter the earth's atmosphere, so those returning from living overseas can find themselves confused and in a state of panic at coming home. While people anticipate that going overseas will require major changes in their lifestyles and thinking, few anticipate the difficulties they will face upon return.Intended to aid the re-entry process, this encouraging, and insightful book deals with these important subjects:

adapting to thepassport culture
identifying areas of potential struggle
dealing with the emotional challenges
finding a new job, a new place to live, learning the social mores
returning is not coming home it is leaving home
facilitating a smooth transition for those on the receiving end

Expatriates, missionaries, mission executives, mission pastors, mission communities, and supporters interested in easing the re-entry experience will benefit greatly from thisbook.
