Abstract

The teaching of the New Testament supported by stellar examples from church history demonstrates that the central goal and priority of Christ's mission (The Great Commission) is the intentional process of making holistic disciples and pursuing disciple-making movemens. The author followed a multi-method research approach incorporating qualitative and quantitative systems of inquiry including both archival and self-reflective inquiry (action research) methods. The author proved that the heart of the mission of Christ is the making of holistic or complete, mature disciples, and that the divinely ordained process for completing Christ's mission is through disciple-making movements through which churches are established. Ministry that is truly 'missional' seeks to accomplish the disciple-making goals of Christ's mission.
