About this episode
This episode discusses Mark Dever's book on the Great Commission and its emphasis on the local church's role in evangelism and discipleship.
In this week's episode, I wanted to recommend Mark Dever's book on the Great Commission. In this short, helpful book Dever helps readers understand the Great Commission in light of God's design in fulfilling it - the local church. Listen in on how the Scriptures and this resource reveal "the local church is God's plan for evangelism, discipleship, and the Great Commission."
