<p><strong>Part 6 of the NAMS Rule &amp; Customary Order Series.</strong></p><p><strong>&quot;Are You in a Great Commission Cell?&quot; — The Question Every NAMS Companion Must Answer</strong></p><p>Every NAMS companion has agreed to lead or be part of a Great Commission cell. But in episode 132, Jon Shuler asks plainly: do you know what one is? Drawing on the evolution of the definition from 1994 to 2017 — and his own story of moving to Charlotte, North Carolina with three couples and a calling — Shuler shows that a Great Commission cell doesn&#39;t require a building, a program, or even a congregation. It requires two or more people praying, thinking, and preparing to plant a new community of faith in obedience to Christ&#39;s final command. Are you an ungerminated seed — a true companion waiting for the door to open? Or is the door already open and you haven&#39;t walked through it? A searching and practical episode for every companion, Anglican church planter, and Great Commission Christian.</p>
