Finish Lines

of the Great Commission

What would happen if the Body of Christ came together around common goals of the Great Commission? Prayer, Compassion, Evangelism, Bible Engagement and Christian Community as finish lines gives us a comprehensive framework to see this nation transformed and discipled.

When we look at these areas as ‘finishable’ our strategies and plans take on a new urgency and hope.

Together we could see the great Commission fulfilled in our lifetime!

Finish lines are a way to strategically focus on what Jesus commanded us to do.

Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you.

Matthew 28:19-20

Prayer

The goal is to prepare spiritually by increasing prayer in each community through:

Adoptions Churches Prayer events

Adoptions

We must see every household and campus adopted in prayer and every person prayed for by name.

Local Churches

Sign-up for a monthly day or half-day of prayer with the goal of praying for your community 24/7.

Prayer Events

Special times of coming together to pray for their community.

Be intentional with those you are praying for and connect to them on a personal level, leading to natural opportunities for intentional Gospel conversations.

Public Evangelism

As a part of the strategy for All.America, the public proclamation of the Gospel via evangelistic campaigns should take place in multiple venues in your area.

Social Media Evangelism

This layer of strategy will allow for every person in a specific area to be targeted with a Gospel message online tailored to their demographic group.

Christian Community

The goal is that all who come to Christ would be connected to a Christian Community.

Personal Discipleship Small Groups Church-based Discipleship

Personal Discipleship

Effective discipleship happens through relationships. Everyone who participates in praying and connecting with those around them is already positioned to follow through with these new believers.

Small Groups

Some of the best settings for discipleship are home groups, workplace Bible studies, school and university clubs, and wherever you do life – pursuing Jesus together to encourage growth in godliness.

Church-based Discipleship

The larger body of Christ provides Christians opportunities to use their gifts, serve one another, and connects them to teaching, worship, and a greater network of personal and group discipleship movements.

How do you create a culture of discipleship? Join Drew Steadman and Brian Phipps as they share how they have been challenged to practically live out a life of discipleship and how they’ve seen it transform their communities!
