The Great Commission

God’s Story:
My Son’s life on earth will end not in death, but in victory! He will rise from his tomb as a conqueror of death and evil. He will change his followers’ hopeless despair into jubilation. He has accomplished my plan to bring my people close to me again.

Read Matthew 28:1-20

Your Story:
Jesus left the disciples with some final words of instructions: They were to make more disciples. While they had previously been charged to focus their mission on the Jews, Jesus now charged them to “make disciples of all nations” (vs. 19). This Great Commission was directed not only to the disciples but to believers everywhere. You too are commanded to go out and make disciples. This could mean talking to your next-door neighbor or traveling across the globe; it doesn’t matter. What matters is that you share the Good News of Christ with those around you.
