our purpose . . .
The Great Co-Mission began with a simple question: What if there were another way?
What if we stopped accepting every part of modern life simply because “that’s the way it is” — and began thoughtfully choosing how we live, work, raise our families, care for our communities, grow our food, use technology, and spend our time?
This is a place to explore those questions — rooted in faith, guided by Scripture, and grounded in practical ways we can begin building something better right where we are.
Therefore go 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 I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.
Matthew 28:19-20

An Invitation
The Great Co-Mission isn't about having all the answers. It's about living out our faith in the everyday places God has put us — in our homes, families, work, communities, and the way we care for one another.
Join the Journey
Explore the articles, projects, questions, and practical resources we're building as we learn what it means to live a slower, more intentional, faith-rooted life.

There is work to be done — in our homes, our communities, and in the lives of people around us. Find a place to serve, help someone who needs it, share what you know, or simply begin with the person God has placed in front of you.
He told them, “The harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few. Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into his harvest field.”
