Podcasts about Matthew 28

This episode of the Mountain Podcast centers on the biblical call to “multiply,” drawing from Genesis 1, Matthew 28, and Luke 10 to emphasize that every believer is called not only to follow Jesus but to actively make disciples through love, obedience, and everyday faithfulness. Samuel explains that spiritual fruitfulness is a natural result of a healthy relationship with God and challenges listeners to move beyond passive consumption of church services into intentional participation in the Great Commission—praying for others, sharing faith, practicing obedience, and showing compassion in practical ways. Through teachings on discipleship, humility, and the Good Samaritan, the message reframes multiplication as living out Christlike love in daily life, trusting God to reshape priorities, prune distractions, and mobilize believers to serve their families, workplaces, and communities with grace and courage.

This week Pastor Efrem Buckle from Ekklesia Church in Lewisham explores how Jesus comissions friendship as he empowers the disciples to take the gospel out to the whole world.

We have 1 more week in the Red Letter Challenge and we can't miss Jesus telling every believer to "Go." Yes, every follower of Jesus is sent to share His message of salvation to people scattered all over the world. That includes you and me. We are commissioned as Jesus' representatives to share the Good News that forgivenesses and new life can only be found in Jesus. So, "Let's Go!"Recorded live at Word of Life Church in Le Sueur, Minnesota, on Sunday, February 8, 2026, Pastor Jason Lang preaching.

The biggest difference between a follower and a fan? Followers stick around for the entire journey, while fans only stay for the highlights. ⛪Jesus calls us in Matthew 28:19 to "go and make disciples of all nations." This isn't just for pastors or missionaries - it's a command for every believer as we go about our daily lives.Following Jesus means making a personal decision to live sacrificially, join His mission, and help others discover who He truly is. The question we must ask ourselves: Are we His followers or His fans?

Today Bro Colton Gideon, a missionary from Spain, shows teaching people to worship is a main reason for missions.

“Therefore, go and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. Teach these new disciples to obey all the commands I have given you. And be sure of this: I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” (Matthew 28:19–20 NLT) As Christians, we need to not only seek to win people to Jesus Christ, but also help them get on their feet spiritually so that they can move on in their relationship with Him. We are called not just to convert but also to make disciples. Jesus said, “Therefore, go and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. Teach these new disciples to obey all the commands I have given you. And be sure of this: I am with you always, even to the end of the age” (Matthew 28:19–20 NLT). Somewhere along the line, we have separated evangelism from discipleship. But God wants us to not only lead people to Christ but also to help them get on their feet spiritually. I am so thankful that God brought a person like this to me. Shortly after my commitment to Christ, I didn’t know a lot of Christians. I wasn’t acclimating very well. I was in that awkward stage where I didn’t feel totally comfortable with Christians, but I didn’t want to hang out with my old friends either. Then one day a guy named Mark came up to me and introduced himself. He brought me to church and introduced me to other Christians. He told me what to read and what it meant. I had so many questions, and he patiently explained things to me. He helped me make that transition. He made a difference in my life. Every Christian can fill a similar role in the life of a new believer. That prospect may seem daunting to some people because they don’t feel equipped to disciple others. They convince themselves that it’s a job for “experts,” little realizing that they are the experts whom God has equipped to fulfill that responsibility. Transparency is the key. You can introduce a new believer to the realities of the Christian life, as opposed to certain idealized (and unrealistic) portrayals of it. You can show a new believer the struggles, setbacks, and victories—big and small—that come from spending time in God’s Word, engaging in regular prayer, sharing your faith with others, and making daily choices that honor God. Maybe God hasn’t called you to be a preacher or to lead worship, but you can be a friend to someone who has recently made a commitment to Christ. You can hang out with them. You can show them what a real Christian is like in the real world. Reflection question: How can you help a new believer understand what it means to live for Christ?

Sunday morning, February 1, Pastor Mike WigginsFor more information on knowing Christ: https://www.calvarypsl.com/knowing-christ/

Most of us think discipleship is mainly about learning—getting more information, attending more classes, knowing more Bible. But Jesus defines discipleship differently in Matthew 28:20: “teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you.” That word observe isn’t just “know it”—it’s watch it, practice it, live it. Discipleship is imitation: people learning to follow Jesus by stepping into the footprints of someone who’s already walking with Him.  In this message, Pastor Joel Hastings closes our Formed & Sent series by showing what it looks like to make disciples in real life: not a one-time moment, but ongoing teaching, shared life, and obedience over time. We’re called to be a church that is equipped (knowing), in community (living it together), and on mission (doing)—because we’re formed by obedience, not just information. And when the calling feels intimidating, Jesus gives the anchor we can’t miss: “Behold, I am with you always.”  Here’s a couple key takeaways • Discipleship happens when someone can see obedience—people learn Jesus’ way by watching your life.  • We’re formed by obedience, not just information—knowing the commands isn’t the same as observing them.  • The mission should feel bigger than you… and that’s the point—because Jesus doesn’t just give a command; He gives His presence: “I am with you always.”

What did Jesus really mean when He said, “Go and make disciples”? In this message, we look at Matthew 28 and Acts 1:8 to discover that disciple-making isn't a program, a personality type, or something reserved for pastors and missionaries. It's part of our identity as followers of Jesus. We are called to be witnesses—ordinary people who share what God has done in us. This message breaks down how disciple-making starts right where you already live: your home, your workplace, your neighborhood, and your relationships. You don't need all the answers. You don't need a platform. You just need a story and the power of the Holy Spirit. The question isn't whether you're part of the mission. The question is: who is your one? --Connect With Us-- Need prayer, want to sign up for baptism or surrender your life to Christ? Follow this link : https://bit.ly/m/lifechurchia

Sunday Morning Message

In Week 3 of our NEXT series, Pastor Rich unpacks what it really means to be a disciple—and why Jesus' call is bigger than a one-time decision. We're talking about three simple discipleship goals: Be with Jesus Become like Jesus Be on mission with Jesus. From there, we zoom in on the Great Commission (Matthew 28) and the phrase that changes everything: Jesus isn't just giving us an activity—He's calling us to a lifestyle of disciple-making as you go. We also look at one of the most controversial parts of Jesus' ministry: who He ate with—and what that shows us about God's heart for people who feel far from Him.

The Church is called to continue on in the Gospel work. Specifically, we are commissioned by the Lord to continue in 2 practices that we call ordinances. Those ordinances are Baptism and the Lord's Supper. We are given a picture of the gospel through these ordinances and today we will look at the importance and why we continue on celebrating the Lord's work in the life of His people.

In All That I Have Commanded You, we explore whether Yeshua commanded his disciples to teach the Torah to the nations.

Scripture Reading from Matthew 28 :16-20 (0:00)Sermon by Nicholas McDonald (0:43)

Baptism can feel like a strange church moment—get in the water, get dunked, everyone claps. But Jesus didn’t include it in the Great Commission as a random tradition. In Matthew 28:19, baptism is tied to discipleship because it represents something massive: if you’re a disciple of Jesus, you’re dead to who you were and alive to who He is.  In this message, Pastor Joel Hastings unpacks why baptism matters, what it symbolizes, and why it’s the first step of obedience for every believer. Drawing from Romans 6, we see baptism as a picture of burial and resurrection—leaving the old life in the grave and walking in newness of life. And we’re reminded that what we need more than anything else isn’t a quick fix—it’s more of Jesus, the King who supplies everything we need.  Here’s a couple key takeaways • Baptism doesn’t save you, but it is a first step of obedience for every believer—and it preaches what Jesus has done.  • If you’re dead to your old self, don’t go digging back in the grave—leave the old sin behind.  • You don’t need more strength—you need more of Jesus. He is everything you need.  ============================= Connect with Grace Point Church: ============================= Instagram: https://instagram.com/gracepointnwa Facebook: https://facebook.com/gracepointnwa Website: https://gracepointchurch.net

Sunday Morning Message

Date: Sunday, January 11, 2026Title: BaptismPreacher: Wayne MeadowsSeries: The OrdinancesPassage: Matthew 28:19-20

We greatly underestimate the greatness of the Great Commission.It feels like we've lost ground, and Christians face many trials in our present culture. It's no wonder so many Christians feel defeated these days – as if things are destined to only get worse and worse without any hope of success of the Gospel in the broader culture. Practically speaking, this has left many Christians discouraged about the prospects of winning the culture and seeing the success of the Gospel in their nation. For many, the mission of the Church to disciple the nations has faded to a lacklustre image of its former glory…Kenneth Gentry notes, “There is dangerous atrophy in the Body of Christ (the Church) due to chronic retreatism and the more recent onset of acute superficiality. And the recovery of the true strength of the family, the Church, and the State will take both effort and time. Fortunately, the Great Commission, when properly understood, provides us with the strength needed for the effort (“I am with you,” promises the One with “all authority”) and the time necessary to the task (“even to the end of the age”).” (Kenneth Gentry, The Greatness of the Great Commission, p. 160)Make no mistakes about it – we are in a war. The Christian life is spiritual warfare. He's given us what we need to mount the offensive to push back the powers of darkness… but we need courage. When we rightly understand our King's marching orders to us – the Great Commission, it fills us with God-given boldness and courage to face the battle ahead of us.

Last words matter. And Jesus’ last words to His disciples are His last words to us: “All authority… Go therefore and make disciples of all nations.” This message is a wake-up call for 2026—Jesus isn’t asking for casual Christians. He’s forming disciples who follow close, live surrendered, and join His unstoppable mission in the world.  As we continue our January series Formed & Sent, Pastor Joel Hastings unpacks Matthew 28:18–20 and shows why the Great Commission changes everything: Jesus has the authority, Jesus gives the mission, and Jesus defines discipleship as learning His way (His “yoke”) and becoming like Him. From first-century discipleship to modern-day obedience, we’re challenged to ask: are we willing not just to die for Jesus—but to live for Him every day?  Here’s a couple key takeaways • Jesus has all authority—so we can trust Him, and we must obey Him.  • Discipleship means staying close enough to Jesus that His life “rubs off” on yours.  • The question isn’t “Would you die for Him?”—it’s “Will you live for Him?”

Let’s Go! 1-11-26

How did Jesus make disciples who made more disciples? And how can we follow that same pattern? It starts with a “follow me”, “come with me” mindset. To be intentional with our invitations. To always be in pursuit of drawing people's hearts to Him. It's not about the words we say, it's about how we live our life and inviting people into what God is doing in, through and around us. ▶SUBSCRIBE: https://www.youtube.com/c/SouthernHillsLV ▶Do you know Jesus as your Savior? https://www.southernhillslv.com/the-gospel ▶ DONATE: https://pushpay.com/g/southernhills?src=hpp&r=monthly ▶ Visit Southern Hills: https://www.southernhillslv.com/ ▶ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/southernhillslv ▶ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/southernhillslv/

Jason Seville, Pastor of Del Ray Baptist Church

What do you do when you’re trying to follow Jesus… and your heart keeps bouncing between worship and doubt? In this message from Matthew 28:16–20, Pastor Joel Hastings walks us through the Great Commission and highlights one of the most surprising details in the entire scene: “they worshiped Him, but some doubted.” Before Jesus sends His disciples into the world, He calls them to Himself—because we can’t live “sent” lives unless we’re first being formed by Him. Here’s what we’re learning as we begin our new series, Formed & Sent: Jesus isn’t looking for the most impressive people—He’s looking for disciples who will keep their eyes on Him, come back to worship, and obey… even in the middle of doubt. Here's a couple key takeaways • Jesus calls you to Himself before He sends you out. • Doubt doesn’t disqualify you—it’s an invitation to believe and obey again. • When you take your eyes off Jesus, you sink… but a simple prayer still changes everything: “Lord, save me.”
