How will the remaining tasks of the Great Commission be realized?

What distinctive role does the Spirit-empowered movement

play in this realization?

Scholars and practitioners from around the globe gathered online at the 2021 Scholars Consultation

of Empowered21 to reflect and strategize on these questions in light of the audacious goals set by

Empowered21: "That every person on earth would have an authentic encounter with Jesus Christ

through the power and presence of the Holy Spirit...by Pentecost 2033." This book is a curated

collection of the resulting conversations, with both original and subsequently commissioned studies.

This book is organized into sections of "Foundational," "Geographic," and "Strategic." In this way,

the reader may grapple with the biblical, theological, and historical impetus for Spirit-empowered

witness in part one, read engaging summaries of the Spirit-empowered movement in specific regions

of the world in part two, and join the authors in actively strategizing context-specific approaches

in part three.

This book presents a unique invitation to enter the conversation on the role and contribution of each

individual and faith community in fulfilling the remaining tasks of the Great Commission.
