The final chapters of Matthew don’t just conclude Jesus’ story—they ignite the story of the Church. In this last session of Secret Church 25, Pastor David Platt helps us see that the Church is not merely a gathering or a building, but a community of brothers and sisters united by the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus. This community exists to follow Jesus together and to make him known in our neighborhoods and among the nations.
As we consider Jesus’ final commands and the Church’s mission, we are reminded that making our lives count is not something we do in isolation. God calls us into a family—a countercultural, Spirit-filled people who live for something greater than themselves. The Church is God’s plan for spreading the hope of Christ to the ends of the earth.
- Will you lose your life to find it in Christ?
- Are you helping others follow Jesus in your local church?
- Will you live—and die—to build up Christ’s Church and proclaim his glory among the nations?
