Join Matthew Ellison and Denny Spitters as they chat with Pam Arlund of All Nations International. Tune in as they ask Pam how Acts 1:8 gets connected to a word like sequentialism. If the early Church had taken Acts 1:8 to mean that they couldn't move on to Judea until they reached Jerusalem, where would we be now?
Tune in for Part 2 of "Deconstructing the Great Commission" where Matthew Ellison and Denny Spitters continue their conversation with guest Ted Esler, President of Missio Nexus. They discuss the difference between the Great Commission & the Great Commandment. In an age of deconstruction, Ted contends that critical thinking goes too far when we rethink the Great Commission, making the point that it doesn’t need to be rethought, it just needs to be rediscovered.
JD Payne says: “We now live in a time when the Church thinks of itself as doing missions even if the gospel is never shared. Catch the newest podcast episode where Matthew Ellison and Denny Spitters chat with their guest Ted Esler, President of Missio Nexus, asking him why he makes a direct connection between missions and the gospel itself and why he feels the direct link is necessary. Aren’t there all sorts of different ways to do missions?

Though well intentioned, the view that everything is missions and every follower of Christ is a missionary comes with significant though unintended mission-impacting consequences. Catch the newest podcast episode where Matthew Ellison and Denny Spitters ask their guest Jeff Jackson, Founder and Director of Shepherd’s Staff Mission Facilitators if he thinks they are blowing things out of proportion with their thoughts and conversations on the current redefinition and broadening of what missions is and who the word missionary should apply to. Is this much ado about nothing? wheneverythingismissions.com

Joined by Jeff Lewis the guys will discuss whether everyone really is a missionary.
When it comes to exporting the gospel, what kind of church will we be? Ingrown like early Jerusalem or outgoing like evangelistic Antioch?
3 billion people on the planet who do not know Christ! Wow. Let that sink in. Today we'll talk about the Great Commission.
What are the marching orders for for the modern church? Nothing new here. The church today has exactly the same mission as the church of Peter, Paul Augustine etc. Go. Go into all the world and preach the Gospel. Could it be that too often, the message of the church is come here and sit down.
Howard Hendricks once wisely observed- “When there is a mist in the pulpit, there is a fog in the pew.” How true. Astonishingly, there is confusion in church leadership about the Great Commission, that’s why we should not be surprised that the general western church body is both largely ignorant and apathetic about the priority of fulfilling this command of Jesus. Matthew and Denny warn today that the church is losing the vision for the Great Commission. The statistics concerning this critical command from Jesus are startling and MUST be addressed now. That’s why this episode of When Everything is Missions is critical for you to pay attention to. The gloves are off on this one folks, as Matthew Ellison and Denny Spitters peel back the layers of the state of world missions at this time in history.
A conversation between two demons with the insights, observations and strategy concerning world missions. What if calling everyone a missionary is a satanically influenced idea? Is it possible that Satan is using one of our own terms against us?
The medieval church discovered the gospel did not need to be redefined, it needed to be rediscovered... in the same way, our idea of missions need not be redefined, it merely needs to be rediscovered. Perhaps it's time for a reformission.
There is a lot of confusion about missions and a very strong confusion about the Great Commission and why it was given... what are the consequences inside and outside of the church?
Meet the authors of the book and hear about their love for God's bride and how they're wanting to call her back, in essence, to some of the core pieces of understanding what mission truly is, seeing the gospel that includes going to the ends of the earth and also engages people in that process within their churches.
