Where did the Apostles learn the Gospel and how were they taught by Jesus to proclaim it- Pastor Chad Vegas walks us through the implication of their message and their methods.

Pastor Mark Dever encourages us to continue to be faithful to the Gospel and The Great Commission by pointing out that God's purposes to make himself known through the Church will not go unfulfilled.

How should we think about the many reports, from missionaries, of thousands of churches being planted and hundreds of thousands of people responding to the gospel- Our brother Harshit helps us think biblically about how to evaluate these claims.

The model of staying long-term to see one local church planted among one unreached language group is biblical and adorns the gospel in a way that is lasting.
