The Next Ten Years

Davis Smith’s book helps returned missionaries transition from the highly structured, spiritually focused environment of full-time missionary service into adult life.

It connects mission-developed skills such as communication, networking, leadership, goal setting, and teamwork with education, careers, relationships, and financial stewardship.

The book encourages readers to preserve spiritual habits while viewing their mission experience as a foundation for continued growth rather than something merely to maintain.

It also addresses purpose, technology, mental and physical health, dating, community service, and long-term financial independence.

Written partly as a workbook, it includes reflective questions and practical guidance for making important decisions during the decade that shapes much of adult life.
