The Great Commandment
& The Great Commission

 
 

Love God. Love People.

“Teacher, which is the great commandment in the Law?” And he said to him, “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. This is the great and first commandment. And a second is like it: You shall love your neighbor as yourself. On these two commandments depend all the Law and the Prophets.”

Matthew 22:36-40

Make Disciples.

And Jesus came and said to them, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.”

Matthew 28:18-20

 

Global Missions

 
 
 

As we study the Book of Acts, we recognize that the priority for the church must include ministry that flows from the Great Commission (Matthew 28:18-20). This is identified as global ministry that focuses on reaching people with the Gospel by making disciples, training leaders, and planting new churches. We also seek to meet the physical and social needs through holistic gospel transformation in every aspect of society. Cornerstone continues to be invested in several strategic regions and people groups, nationally and internationally.

We also have a growing conviction that the church’s responsibility is to be deeply involved in the whole process of identifying, training, sending, and sustaining missionaries and church leaders. We do this by providing Missionary and Church Planter Assessments, cross-cultural and worldview training, short-term exploratory trips, and Home Front Teams (small groups that rally around a particular missionary to encourage them, pray for them, and remind them of their connection to our community here).
