Countryside Conference 2020

 |  Countryside Bible Church

Missions: The Unfinished Task

And Jesus came up and spoke to them, saying, "All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth. Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age."

- Matthew 28:18-20


God has given the church a mission to the world. We are to take the gospel to the nations in order to establish churches for His glory. This year's Countryside Conference helped us to discover more of God's heart for the nations and the unique role God has for us in participating in the fulfillment of this mission.
