Episode 2.8Why does the church exist? In this episode, we begin a short series on biblical church ministry by laying the foundation: the church exists to glorify God. Drawing from passages like Romans 15 and 1 Corinthians 6, we explore how the church's ultimate purpose isn't growth, tradition, or activity—but glory.That glory takes shape through the Great Commission—evangelism (reaching the lost) and edification (growing the found). We unpack the dual calling to make and mature disciples, examine warning signs of mission drift, and challenge churches to evaluate every ministry through this simple but powerful lens: Does this glorify God?Find our videocast here: https://youtu.be/BJ_WW_fRmHoMerch here: https://take-2-podcast.printify.me/Music from #Uppbeat (free for Creators!):⁠https://uppbeat.io/t/reakt-music/deep-stone⁠License code: 2QZOZ2YHZ5UTE7C8Find more Take 2 Theology content at http://www.take2theology.com

How how are we supposed to step into the very thing that Jesus commands us to do -- Go and make disciples?What if Christianity is so much more than just the Sunday gathering?Discipleship is truly learning and knowing what it means to walk every single day with Jesus.Our hope for you is that you would get a framework today to walk away with, to know how easy and accessible it is to step into the Great Commission; that you would give your life to seeing the Great Commission fulfilled in our day.1 You then, my child, be strengthened by the grace that is in Christ Jesus, 2 and what you have heard from me in the presence of many witnesses entrust to faithful men, who will be able to teach others also. 3 Share in suffering as a good soldier of Christ Jesus. 4 No soldier gets entangled in civilian pursuits, since his aim is to please the one who enlisted him. 5 An athlete is not crowned unless he competes according to the rules. 6 It is the hard-working farmer who ought to have the first share of the crops. 7 Think over what I say, for the Lord will give you understanding in everything.8 Remember Jesus Christ, risen from the dead, the offspring of David, as preached in my gospel, 9 for which I am suffering, bound with chains as a criminal. But the word of God is not bound! 10 Therefore I endure everything for the sake of the elect, that they also may obtain the salvation that is in Christ Jesus with eternal glory. 11 The saying is trustworthy, for:If we have died with him, we will also live with him;12 if we endure, we will also reign with him;if we deny him, he also will deny us;13 if we are faithless, he remains faithful—for he cannot deny himself.2 Timothy 2:1-13We'd love for you to subscribe to our channel and turn on notifications to get updates on our latest content and resources that will help more people know Jesus and people know Jesus more.GIVE : We believe that generosity is golden.

Should Christians reject or embrace wealth and prosperity? In this episode of The Missions Podcast, Scott talks with Josiah Stowe, co-founder of Dominion Wealth Strategists, on the often-overlooked yet vital subject of money and prosperity theology in the context of missions and ministry. Their conversation explores the tensions missionaries face regarding finances—especially retirement planning, family provision, and legacy—while challenging the assumption that piety must equate to poverty. Josiah argues that wealth-building can and should align with biblical stewardship and that Christians are called to be faithful stewards who multiply their resources for God's glory and the good of future generations. Their discussion critiques both the prosperity gospel and the poverty gospel, emphasizing a balanced, exegetically rooted theology of money. Finally, Josiah emphasizes the importance of legacy planning—wills, trusts, insurance, and investments—as essential tools for sustaining ministry impact across generations. Key Topics Covered Misconceptions about wealth in missions (piety vs. poverty) Biblical foundations for wealth building Distinction between biblical stewardship and prosperity gospel teachings The moral imperative for Christians to build and steward wealth wisely The need for long-term financial planning including retirement and legacy With over 3 billion people in the world who have never heard of Jesus, the global need is tremendous for workers to go into the harvest fields (Matthew 9:37-38).

Jesus’ resurrection and ascension are how God steps into our chaos and starts putting things back together—bringing order to the mess and beauty to our lives. Because he’s alive and reigning, we get to experience his presence with us, the power of the Holy Spirit in us, and a new purpose that calls us to live for something bigger than ourselves. Notes: John Craft, our Guest Speaker, is the Executive Director of the Rocky Mountain Church Network TRANSCRIPT

Jesus had promised his disciples that they would receive the Holy Spirit to empower them to be witnesses to all the earth. Get ready, because it's happening! The event known as Pentecost marks the arrival of the Holy Spirit, where God's presence is intimately experienced by believers and empowers them to fulfill the Great Commission. And wow, what a sight it would've been!

Gospel Life Church exists to make disciples who make disciples and to plant churches that plantchurches.Many of us have heard that phrase before—but what does it actually mean? What is a disciple? How aredisciples made? What's my role in all of this? And let's be honest—church planting sounds intimidating.What if I'm not a church planter? As we grow in the gospel, we want to be very clear: the Bible doesn'tteach us that we grow for our own benefit. We grow so that we can go—and often, we'll discover that wegrow as we go.The Great Commission is the catalyst Jesus gave His disciples for gospel-driven growth.He gave them a mission, a method, and a message—and then reminded them that He is the one whomakes it all possible. Yes, some doubted, and all struggled in various ways, but Jesus still commissionedthem to “go and make disciples” and changed them with His Spirit as they went.By God's grace, Gospel Life, we are growing—in depth, in relationship, and in mission. We're planting achurch, digging deeper into God's Word, and praying that we might be a faithful gospel witness in thePuyallup Valley for many years to come. We invite you to hear and be compelled by the GreatCommission of Jesus Christ in this sermon series and to join us in faith as we endeavor to makedisciples and plant churches in this community for many years to come.Jesus declared that all authority in heaven and on earth is His and He promised to be with us to the veryend of the age. Therefore...will you join us as we go?

In this series, we'll discover what it means for us to be disciples of Jesus. In Matthew 28:18-20, Jesus gives the Great Commission, which all believers are a part of. This command shouldn't come with a lot of pressure, because discipleship happens one step at a time. As we mature in our relationship with Jesus, we will begin to experience all God has for us because every time we take a next step on our discipleship journey, we, by design, experience more of God!

Are you on fire for God but worried about the subtle ways faith can erode? Join Conrad as he explores sobering historical and personal examples of apostasy and discover biblical safeguards to keep your spiritual relationship with Jesus strong and steadfast. Bullet Points (Key Takeaways):Understanding apostasy and recognizing its subtle beginnings. "Wherefore let him that thinketh he standeth take heed lest he fall." (1 Corinthians 10:12 KJV)Historical examples of spiritual leaders who fell:Alexander Dowie: Healing ministry to self-proclamation as Elijah, a fall due to pride.William Branham: Powerful gifts of knowledge and healing, but strayed from his calling into controversial doctrine.Charles Templeton: Dynamic evangelist who became agnostic due to prioritizing intellectualism over a spiritual relationship with God.Personal examples of believers who strayed:"Sunshine": Mixed New Age teachings with Christianity, neglecting biblical grounding."Mandy": Faced intense family opposition for her prophetic ministry, leading to her disappearance from public life. "A man's foes shall be they of his own household." (Matthew 10:36 KJV)"Samantha": Came out of witchcraft with pure faith but lacked spiritual oversight, leading to doctrinal error."Jack": Shifted from synchronized spiritual revelation to monetizing insights and seeking followers. "For the love of money is the root of all evil." (1 Timothy 6:10 KJV)"Jimbo": Moved from impactful street evangelism to a corporate pastor role, ceasing public outreach. "Nevertheless I have somewhat against thee, because thou hast left thy first love." (Revelation 2:4 KJV)Key reasons for falling away: Pride, neglecting the Word of God, lack of accountability, shifting focus to self-promotion or financial gain, not staying in one's divine calling.How to safeguard against apostasy:Daily study and deep engagement with Scripture. "Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth." (2 Timothy 2:15 KJV)Cultivate humility and seek accountability within the body of Christ. "Pride goeth before destruction, and an haughty spirit before a fall." (Proverbs 16:18 KJV)Maintain spiritual vigilance and a consistent prayer life. "Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour." (1 Peter 5:8 KJV)Hold fast to sound doctrine and test all spiritual experiences against the Bible. "Take heed unto thyself, and unto the doctrine; continue in them: for in doing this thou shalt both save thyself, and them that hear thee." (1 Timothy 4:16 KJV)The importance of a spiritual relationship with the biblical Jesus, grounded in both Spirit and Word.**Connect With Me:**- Blog: conradrocks.net  https://www.conradrocks.net/- Social Media:  Facebook | Instagram | Twitter | TikTok  https://www.facebook.com/conrad.carriker  https://www.instagram.com/conradcarriker  https://twitter.com/MostRadicalMan  https://www.tiktok.com/@supernaturalchristianity**Free Resources:**- Try Audible Free Trial  https://amzn.to/2MT9aQW- Get Readwise Free Trial  https://readwise.io/i/conrad8- Start Amazon Prime Free Trial  https://amzn.to/2Jtymte**My Work:**- Books: Open Your Eyes | Night Terror  https://amzn.to/3RJx7by  https://amzn.to/3XRFohl- Shop: Team Jesus T-Shirts  https://teespring.com/stores/team-jesus-4- Support: PayPal  https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/ConradRocks- For Creators: Get $10 off StreamYard  https://streamyard.com/pal/d/5663052624035840

Welcometo Pastor's Chat. Today we're looking at Luke chapter 19. Yesterday, we talkedabout Jesus sending two of His disciples ahead when He was at the Mount ofOlives to go to a village and find a colt tied by a door. Mark's gospel says itwas where two ways met. Today, I want to talk about divine appointments. Thatcolt tied by the door is a beautiful picture of a sinner tied by their sins,right outside the door of salvation, where two roads cross—one leading todestruction, the other to life. What a picture of how God wants us to go outand find people that He is working in, preparing their hearts to come to JesusChrist. It'sa mystery to me how we have the Great Commission to share the gospel with everycreature, yet at the same time God is sovereignly working in people's hearts,preparing them to receive it. Sometimes He uses trials, troubles, ordifficulties; sometimes it's His providential care that brings them to a senseof needing something they don't have, something money or family can't provide.They feel a deep dissatisfaction with life and are searching for truth. God isworking in their lives, and He needs someone to tell them about Jesus. Thinkof Cornelius, the centurion who was a good, godly man in a sense—he prayed andgave alms, yet he didn't know Jesus. An angel told him to find Peter, who wouldshare what he needed to do. The angel couldn't share the gospel, but Peter wasavailable, and the Holy Spirit sent him to deliver the message to Cornelius. Ialso think of Abraham's servant, Eliezer, in Genesis 24 that was sent to find abride for Isaac. Abraham told him not to take Isaac to the land he was going tobut to find a bride and bring her back. If she wouldn't come, Eliezer would befree from his oath. We're like that servant, sent by God to find a bride for Christ.Eliezer came to a well where Rebekah was drawing water. He prayed, asking Godto show him the right woman for his master's son, and when Rebekah offered todraw water for him and his camels, his prayer was answered. He worshipped,saying, “I, being in the way, the Lord led me.” (Genesis 24:27). Myfriend, there are people everywhere waiting for someone to tell them aboutJesus. God has prepared their hearts—they're like that colt tied by the door ofsalvation, just a step away from eternal life. They need someone to loose themwith the power of the resurrection message of Jesus Christ. Paul said, “I'm notashamed of the gospel of Jesus Christ; it's the power of God unto salvation toeveryone who believes, to the Jew first and also to the Greek” (Romans 1:16). Wednesday,I was out with a friend named Ben, having lunch. Our waitress kept coming toour table, and we had the opportunity to invite her to Ben's church, and also tellher about the Lord. She promised to come with her husband. I believe everywherewe go, there's someone waiting to hear about God's kindness and Christ's love,someone we can show the way to salvation. Divineappointments—I've had them all my life. On planes, in hotel rooms, at restaurants,at gas stations, on my neighborhood streets, at sports events, and many otherplaces! How exciting it is to look back and see what the Lord did when we werejust in the way, and He directed our steps. The same can be true for you today.Trust the Lord—there's someone waiting for you to untie them and bring them toJesus. When Jesus sat on that colt, that had been never ridden before,everything was fine. Jesus can change a life and still does today.Itrust you will be looking for a divine appointment today. Someone is waitingfor you!

This passage is often thought of as “the Great Commission” because in it we see that God is not just sending his people on mission, but in Jesus, he is himself on mission.

Dr. JB Hixson Mary welcomes back JB Hixson today to discuss discipleship. What does it mean to disciple, or be discipled? And why didn't Jesus say, "go and make converts"? Much of the church equates the two but they are not the same concept.  What exactly is a disciple? If we start there, it will be easier to define discipleship; but the general idea at some juncture is about a relationship, and from that comes a life-long process of learning, and growing, and resembling Jesus. Considering the seemingly stunted growth of so many church-goers, we might be able to deduct that in addition to a lack of Bible knowledge, there is little to no discipling going on, and where there is, depth is lacking. What are some of the ways the church can rectify this? How can we be more engaged with one another instead of disengaged? How does it translate into making disciples of all nations?  Converts, yes. Disciples, yes. The church needs to get busy on the Great Commission! A thoughtful hour with JB.     Stand Up For The Truth Videos: https://rumble.com/user/CTRNOnline & https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgQQSvKiMcglId7oGc5c46A

Jesus' final words spoken on Earth were His marching orders for His Church. No one is omitted from the Great Commission; it is an all-inclusive command, and the mandate is active today. In this message, Adrian Rogers tells us about the power and presence of Jesus Christ that enables us to carry out His command.

In this live-recorded episode from the 2025 CMDA National Convention, we sit down with Dr. HK, DDS, Oral Medicine and Associate Executive Officer of ICMDA, who serves across East Asia, Southeast Asia, and Oceania. A passionate servant-leader, Dr. HK shares how one “yes” to a volunteer opportunity launched a lifetime of Christ-centered influence in healthcare. From training leaders through the Saline Process to mentoring students in mission outreaches and advocating for the marginalized, his story invites us to see our own work through an eternal lens. Whether you’re in a small clinic or a global network, this conversation will stir your heart for discipleship, purpose, and the global call of the Great Commission in medicine and dentistry.

Todayas we look at this passage in Luke 19, we need to remember that in the lastseveral chapters, Jesus has been on his way to Jerusalem with his disciples. Heis giving His last lessons and messages, teaching them things about the comingkingdom. Now, on this particular occasion, in verse 28, it says, "Andwhen he had said this, He went ahead, going up to Jerusalem." Webelieve this is Jesus' last trip to Jerusalem, where he will be crucified. Theevents we read about here in verses 28 and following take place on what we callPalm Sunday.  Over the next several dayswe will be talking about the events of this week leading up to his crucifixion. Thisevent takes place on the east side of Jerusalem on the Mount of Olives. Jesussends two of His disciples to a nearby village to loose a colt that is tied by “adoor outside, where two ways met.” Of course this event is about what takesplace on Palm Sunday, but I think the great lesson here is, especially as wewere looking at the previous parable Jesus just gave about the ten minas thatwas given to the ten servants by their master (vv. 11-27), He was talking abouthow we, as the servants of Jesus, have been entrusted with the Word of God,with the seed of God's Word, and we are to take this seed to the world. We areto invest it in the lives of others, showing them the way to Jesus.  Thenwe have Luke recount this event that takes place. You also read this event indetail in the Gospel of Mark chapter 11. In Mark chapter 11, it talks about howJesus sends two of His disciples. You have a great illustration and applicationof how Jesus sends out His disciples two by two. The Bible teaches us that weshould have a companion to go with us as we share the gospel with others. Thereare many reasons for that. Aswe go out two by two, we are to find a colt that's tied by the door. I love howMark's Gospel says it: “They went their way and found a colt tied by thedoor, outside in a place where two ways met, and they loosed him.” Thiscolt represents a lost sinner. It was a colt that had never been ridden, agreat picture of a sinner who is lost in his sins. He is tied by the door, andisn't it interesting that Jesus says, "I am the door"? He's tied by adoor that's outside. The people who are lost are tied to sin, outside the doorof salvation, Jesus Christ.  Theyare also in a place where “two ways met”. This is a place of decision. Youeither go to heaven from here, or you go to hell. When you meet Jesus Christ,you have to make a choice: Is He indeed the Christ, the Messiah, the Son ofGod, the Lamb of God that takes away the sin of the world, or is He justsomeone else you don't care to know? If you decide that He is Jesus the Christ,the Son of God, my friend, you want to be loosed from the bondage of your sin.And you need someone to bring you the power of the Gospel Word to loose you.  So,what should we be doing as servants and disciples of Jesus Christ? We should beobeying Him, going to the place where two roads meet, a crossroads for a lostsinner tied to his sin. Our job is to share the good news of Jesus Christ,loose him, and bring him to Jesus. Jesus said, "I have need ofhim."  Oh,my friend, Jesus has need of every lost sinner, who is someone who will bring Himglory, praise, and honor like no one else can. And serve Him to bring others toChrist also. Today, let's apply these scriptures to our lives and be like thesedisciples who went and did as the Lord told them. We have been given the GreatCommission also. We are sent by Jesus to loose a tied colt today! He or she isat the crossroad of decision! Be looking for him or her as you go! Yesterday,my friend Ben and I had the opportunity to begin “loosing” a tied colt (awaitress), as we were eating lunch at a local restaurant. How exciting!!!!

Episode 244 - What Will Antichrist Do?In this powerful, scriptural exploration of the Antichrist, Mavericks & misfits subscribers are reminded of the critical importance of staying vigilant in our faith. The discussion delves into Revelation 13 and 2 Thessalonians 2, painting a vivid picture of the end times. This episode challenges us to consider how our current spiritual commitments reflect our readiness for future trials. Are we living out our faith authentically now, or merely presuming we'll stand firm when real persecution comes to the whole earth? This message urges us to deepen our relationship with Christ daily, emphasizing that our ability to resist future deception hinges on our present devotion. It's a wake-up call to live out the Great Commission, serve others, and carry our cross daily - not just in words, but in tangible actions that reflect Christ's love.

In this episode, we explore the concept of kingdom influence and how professionals can use their skills, abilities, and positions to advance the principles of the kingdom of God. We delve into biblical texts, particularly from the book of Matthew, to illustrate how believers are called to create cultural impact. We discuss the Great Commission and the potential for the gospel to shape nations. Through the example of Joseph in Egypt, we see how professional excellence, alongside godly character and charisma, can lead to significant influence. The discussion emphasizes the importance of integrating kingdom principles into corporate and societal structures, thus uplifting communities and fostering an environment that reflects the values of heaven.

Fully Commited Part 4: "The Great Commission" (Harold Guerra) by Pastor Harold Guerra

The Rescuers Today, Pastor Michael is talking about rescue.  If you are a Christian, a follower of Christ, then you have been rescued.  And Jesus is sending you to rescue others! The rescued become rescuers is our theme for the day. We can summarize the mission of the Great Commission in four words: Go—intentionally where people are.  Intentionally connect with people. Reach—share Jesus with people in a way that they can relate to and respond. Baptize—not just getting them wet, but making them a part of the community of believers. Teach—disciple them.  We cannot ever lose sight of this mission!  We must refuse to be inwardly-focused.  We must become “rescuers.” Steps to Rescue Pray for the Lord to open your heart to someone who needs Jesus and His hope and light.  Be aware of your opportunities with that person. God has thrown someone a lifeline, and that rescuer is YOU! Today's verses are found in Matthew 28: 18-20.

5-18-2025The message emphasizes living in the light of Jesus' teachings, particularly as graduates embark on new chapters in life. ​ It highlights the Great Commission from Matthew 28:16-20, where Jesus declares His authority over heaven and earth, calls His followers to make disciples, and assures them of His constant presence. ​ Will Dyer encourages graduates and all listeners to recognize Jesus as the most brilliant teacher, embrace His counter-cultural values of grace, humility, and sacrifice, and live as His disciples by embodying His teachings in daily life. ​ Ultimately, the message underscores the importance of worshiping Jesus with the whole of one's life, trusting in His guidance, and sharing His love with the world. ​

Mark 16:15 says this... “And He said to them, ‘Go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature.'” Let's make this our mission today!

Has modern evangelicalism forgotten about key aspects of who God is? In this episode of The Missions Podcast, Alex and Scott welcome Dr. Peter Sammons, Associate Director of Academic Development at Founders Seminary, to discuss the "forgotten attributes" of God—those less-discussed incommunicable aspects of God's nature. Sammons argues that modern Christians tend to focus on God's relational and communicable attributes (like love and kindness) because they are easier to grasp and more emotionally resonant. Sammons stresses that a proper understanding of God's essence and metaphysical attributes is crucial for true worship and doctrinal precision. The discussion also explores why understanding God's immutable nature is essential, especially in missions. Many pagan and world religions depict gods as moody and human-like, but the Christian God stands apart as wholly other, unaffected by human emotion or manipulation. This, Sammons emphasizes, highlights the necessity of theological depth for missionaries. Without it, missionaries risk portraying God as just another tribal deity. Key Points Forgotten Attributes: Focus on God's immutability, impassibility, and aseity, which are often overshadowed by more "relatable" attributes. Essence of God: Importance of understanding God's essence versus merely his relational attributes. Modern Challenges: Cultural and intellectual laziness has led to theological illiteracy and avoidance of difficult doctrines. Missional Importance: Proper theological understanding is critical for distinguishing the Christian God from false deities in missions work. Training Solutions: Founders Seminary offers a Master of Arts in Cultural Apologetics and Missions to deepen theological literacy for missionaries, even remotely. Do you love The Missions Podcast?

What does it really mean to follow Jesus? In this inspiring message, Pastor Danny de Armas challenges us to make the Great Commission our personal mission. Rooted in Matthew 28 and Colossians 2, this message reminds us that following Jesus means more than belief—it means building lives, growing in truth, and helping others do the same. We serve a King who leads with love, not power, and invites us to be part of His kingdom work. Discover how being filled with His life equips us to live with purpose, influence others, and share a faith that's real and compelling. (04/06/2025)

Through a study of the book of Acts, we're asking the Spirit conform us to the patterns and practices of the early church — a people who love the lost like Jesus, give of themselves in rhythms of blessing and hospitality, and who seek to engage in curious, spiritual, and gospel conversations. We want the Spirit to do an Acts 1-2 kind of work, fulfilling Jesus's promise in Acts 1.8: You will receive power, and you will be my witnesses. What is our role? To believe the Great Commission is for each of us and all of us together, to receive the Spirit in personal and corporate prayer and dependence, and to actively prepare for whatever opportunities the Spirit creates to bear witness to Jesus.

At Crossroads Bible Church, we are passionate about following Jesus and making disciples as we see and share the goodness of God. Located in Double Oak, TX (North Dallas), we invite you to join us for our Sunday service at 10 am, either online or in person. The way we view the world shapes who we are becoming, and we want to help you see the goodness of God in every aspect of life – whether it's in our families, work, small groups, or Sunday mornings. In a world filled with distractions and messages that often steer us away from God, our mission is to see God's goodness in everything we do. From Genesis to the Great Commission, the calling of God's people has been to show the world His goodness. By doing so, we can help the world see that God is not done working in our lives, bringing redemption and rescue through His love and grace.

In this series, we'll discover what it means for us to be disciples of Jesus. In Matthew 28:18-20, Jesus gives the Great Commission, which all believers are a part of. This command shouldn't come with a lot of pressure, because discipleship happens one step at a time. As we mature in our relationship with Jesus, we will begin to experience all God has for us because every time we take a next step on our discipleship journey, we, by design, experience more of God!

In this heartfelt conversation, Corey opens up about the challenges and triumphs of transitioning from a high-stakes military career to full-time ministry, the cultural adjustments of working in India, and how his faith in Christ sustained him through it all. Discover how God redirected Corey's skills in navigating danger to now navigating souls toward salvation, and hear his insights on living out the Great Commission in a complex world.

What if the next Billy Graham is sitting in your Bible study?In this electrifying message from Pastor Roman Gutierrez at the McAllen International Bible Conference, we're reminded that global impact begins with local obedience.

Do you talk with believers that are apathetic towards world missions? Perhaps you're currently discipling someone who can't seem to get out of their comfort zone. If so, today's episode of the Gospel Mobilization Podcast will equip you with practical ideas as you have these difficult conversations. Our host, Dave Jacob, sat down with Scott Hildreth, the associate professor of missiology and associate dean of the ministry preparation area at Southeastern Seminary. A former missionary himself, Scott is working to educate and mobilize the next generation of missionaries. Here's what Dave asked:   1. What is your story of how the Lord “awakened the missionary within you”?   2. In a culture that values exploring the world as an opportunity to see exotic places and experience new things, how do we develop a heart sensitive to the world's vast lostness and need for the gospel?   3. In your book, you write, “Far too many of us live out the words of John Ryland: ‘If God wants to reach them, He can do it without my help.'” Where does this idea come from? What's wrong with it? What does it reveal about us?   4. According to a study from Lifeway Research, more than 2 in 3 U.S. Protestant pastors (67%) believe comfort is an idol that has significant influence on their congregations. How can mobilizers help others overcome this apathy and comfort?   5. Throughout the text you break down the Great Commission and note that it is for all believers. Unpack that a little bit for us.   6. How can mobilizers use this text as a mobilization tool?   7. What do you hope this book does for believers who read it?

Are good deeds a part of God's Great Commission? We all should know the great charge that Jesus gave to His disciples both before the Cross and after His Ascension—to go forth, to witness, to make disciples. And Jesus told us all what the two great commandments are: to love God and to love our neighbors. So, what about good deeds—do they help or obscure the Great Commission? Join Kevin as we dive into both the Great Commission and what we can rightly label Good Deeds Theology! // Download this episode's Application & Action questions and PDF transcript at whitestone.org.

Are we thinking about persecuted Christians incorrectly? What should our and the church's response be? In this episode of The Missions Podcast, Alex and Scott talk with Andy Coleman, president of the Christian Emergency Alliance and author of the new book In Days of Darkness: A Manual for Ordinary Christians Facing Unusual Times. The discussion explores the realities of Christian persecution worldwide, especially in regions like Syria and Nigeria, and how Western believers should respond both spiritually and practically. Coleman, who has years of on-the-ground experience in conflict zones, offers a measured, informed perspective that resists both sensationalism and apathy. Coleman emphasizes the need for “connective tissue” in the global Church—awareness, prayer, and meaningful support between believers in safer contexts and those in peril. He discusses the nuanced and often hidden complexities of persecution, where violence is often localized, and government complicity or neglect plays a key role. The conversation also introduces his book, which seeks to equip everyday Christians to stand firm and act faithfully amid increasing pressures, both abroad and closer to home.
