What is the most important thing happening in the world today? It's not the soaring national debt, the plummeting birthrate, or the ascent of AI, but the rapidly approaching completion of Jesus' Great Commission. In The Sprint to the Finish: The Global Push to Complete the Great Commission in This Generation, author Douglas Cobb offers a front-line account of the worldwide movement to fulfill Jesus' command to "make disciples of every nation" in our generation.
In The Sprint to the Finish, Cobb draws on his extensive experience as managing partner of the Finishing Fund, which has funded projects to reach over 800 unengaged people groups in 66 countries with the gospel. The book details inspiring stories of transformed lives in remote regions, highlights the strategic role of indigenous missionaries, and explores the biblical significance of completing the Great Commission, as outlined in Matthew 24:14, which ties this mission to the return of Christ.
Cobb's narrative weaves together real-world accounts of missionary work with theological insights, offering readers hope and practical guidance for living faithfully in these significant days. The book emphasizes the urgency and excitement of this "sprint" to reach every nation, making it a timely read for Christians seeking to understand their role in this historic moment.
