Matthew 28:5-20 – Your Life Mission (Part 1) takes place just after Jesus’ resurrection where He calls the disciples to meet Him in Galilee with the purpose of giving them their life’s mission.  In Matthew 28 Jesus commands His disciples, “Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations”. This is “The Great Commission”. Although making disciples sounds intimidating, Jesus intentionally gives a clear command meant for all Christians to accomplish.
