Great Commission spirituality must first emerge from a hearty trust in the Triune God, and then it should grow out of and bear fruit from the power of the Word of Christ. It should result in a restful, glad-hearted contentment in God, and it therefore labors freely and gratefully to the glory of God and the salvation of the nations. Great Commission spirituality is a subset of classical evangelical spirituality. It actively trusts God’s promises to gather worshipers from every people, heartily rests in Christ’s atonement and righteousness, and seeks to sacrificially serve with a strength that can only come from the Holy Spirit.

Many biographies retell legendary accomplishments of sacrificial Great Commissin servants of generations past. However, more than learning from what they famously achieved, we must look deeper at what they believed. We would do well to consider how certain beliefs are especially applicable for gospel service of all kinds, and how fruitfulness and faithfulness emerge from resting in and acting upon the promises of God. God certainly did and does amazing things through weak gospel servants. And that is just the point: The Triune God does it. And he seems to delight in using frail, ordinary servants who are willing to risk everything to abide in his Word, rest in his grace, and hope in his promises.
