Prior to ascending to the right had of the Father, Jesus gathers his disciples and charges them to go and make disciples. On the one hand, the Great Commission is a familiar text. On the other hand, unfortunately, it is also a widely forsaken text. Too many professing Christians practically dismiss this text when it comes to personal priorities and agendas. This ought not be the case. Join with your church family this week as we confess our misplaced priorities and ask God to make us passionate to live according to His mission—the Great Commission.
