As final words often are, some of Jesus’s last words to His disciples before He ascended into Heaven were significant. We should lean in very close to hear and heed the task He left them (and us) with, until His return.

These final words of Jesus are often referred to as the Great Commission, and as a follower of Jesus, it truly is the greatest mission we get to be part of. There is nothing more exhilarating and life-giving than to love and care about others so deeply that you are willing to lay aside your agenda, comfort, reputation, or even safety to bring the life-changing love and Good News of Jesus to others.

We are called to "multiply" and make disciples. Sharing our faith with others can be intimidating, though, and we often doubt our ability to do it. This week on "Table Forty," Matt and Leslee Holliday discuss how we as Christians are always representing Jesus, whether we're in church or at the grocery store. The life that happens in between presents plenty of chances to display God's love and to multiply our faith by sharing the hope of Christ with others.

This is the final week of our study through the "Discipleship Handbook," a 10-week plan from The Increase that examines some of the most important topics encompassing what it looks like to be a disciple of Jesus.
