What does it take to reach 8 billion people with the gospel message? Pastor Patterson delivers a powerful challenge that will transform how you view your local church's global responsibility.

Drawing from his experience leading a young church plant to global impact, Pastor Patterson shares how a congregation of just 25 members sponsored an international crusade that saw 102 people receive the Holy Ghost—the largest single outpouring that nation had ever experienced. His testimony proves that church size doesn't limit kingdom impact.

The Great Commission isn't optional—it's a divine mandate requiring every church to participate in harvest at four levels: local, regional, national, and global. Pastor Patterson unpacks Acts 1:8 to show how Jesus intended believers to engage simultaneously at each level, challenging listeners with a sobering question: What will it take for today's church to move beyond comfortable boundaries into worldwide harvest fields?

God measures churches not by seating capacity but by sending capacity. This perspective shift invites leaders to evaluate ministry effectiveness through global impact rather than just local metrics. Even if you can't physically go on international missions, you can participate through prayer and financial support—both powerful ways to extend your reach beyond city limits.

The session culminates with powerful insights from Pastor Patterson's recent experience on the Ethiopia crusade team, where he witnessed the extraordinary impact of unity and collaborative ministry. When ego and personal recognition are set aside for kingdom advancement, supernatural doors open and exponential blessings flow.

Ready to expand your vision and participate in global harvest? Join the next crusade team heading to the Philippines July 8-14. Your church—regardless of size—has a vital role to play in reaching the nations!

We love to hear from our listeners! Thank you!
