The Great Commission, found in Jesus' words at the end of Matthew's Gospel, is the third key to mobilizing the small church for ministry:  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, and teaching them to obey everything that I have commanded you. (Matthew 28: 18b-20a)
Even the smallest congregation is commissioned by Christ to seek out persons and help them invite God's gift of salvation into their hearts. Even the smallest church is commissioned to bring people to the church for baptism. Even the smallest congregation is commissioned to teach the life and words of Jesus. This is what makes churches of any size effective and precious in God's sight.
