Truth: Solid Ground In a Shifting World EP3 - Gospel Goes Everywhere

The Great Commission in Matthew 28:16-20 reminds us that Jesus has all authority and has commanded believers to make disciples of all nations. This isn't merely about personal spiritual growth but about fulfilling a mission to bring the Gospel to every culture and community. The Gospel is timeless truth that addresses universal human needs like guilt, shame, meaninglessness, and separation from God—needs that remain constant across all generations and cultures. Every culture, including our modern Western society, has its own set of idols and broken systems. While we may not worship wooden statues, many sacrifice everything on the altars of success, beauty, wealth, and status. The Gospel offers hope and transformation in every context. Christians are called to engage culture with discernment rather than isolate themselves. This means contextualizing the message—presenting truth in culturally relevant ways without watering down its essence. Effective Gospel sharing happens through genuine relationships and understanding of different cultural backgrounds, whether engaging with people of different ethnicities, generations, political views, or life circumstances.
