  • Dr. Steve Hake on Discipleship, Outreach & the Great Commission
    2026/03/02
    What does it look like to live a life completely sold out to Christ—and still experience joy, peace, and fulfillment? In this episode of The Great Commission Today, we sit down with Dr. Steve Hake, a man who has pursued that question for over fifty years as a missionary, professor, and church elder.

Then, in his words, “God smashed my life.” That divine disruption set him on a path that would include nearly twenty […]

    2026/02/05
    In this visionary, wide-ranging, and deeply pastoral conversation, Rev. Richard Dalton—church planter, Anglican minister, and founder of Look Up Detroit—joins The Great Commission Today to explore how Christians can reclaim a faithful, visible, and redemptive presence in the digital public square. Drawing from his conversion story, decades of ministry, and a growing burden for cities, Richard presents Look Up Detroit as a compelling experiment in Christian collaboration, hospitality, and civic blessing. Rather than another siloed church website or algorithm-controlled social media feed, Look Up Detroit functions as a city-wide digital front porch—a place where churches, service organizations, libraries, nonprofits, and […]
