The Great Commission is both deep in its intensity (making disciples, not just converts) and wide in its extensiveness (“into all the world”). But even where it was once strongly preached and professed, the Gospel’s light seems today to be a flickering candle. How do we take the message of the gospel into all the world? On this edition of the program the hosts discuss the meaning of Christ’s mission statement in the context of today’s religious pluralism.

The content of Michael Hortons’s article, The Great Announcement, needs to read, heard, and digested by today’s Christians. Certainly nothing to add on my part, just thankful for this clarifying message.
-All authority in heaven and on earth belongs to him [Christ]…
-Because Christ accomplished his mission, ours is guaranteed success—defined by God’s purposes, not ours.
-Before there can be a mission, there has to be a message…
-Before there is a witness, there must be a person whose accomplishment is worthy of proclaiming…
-The gospel comes first. We must hear it—not just at first for our own conversion, but every moment of our lives…
