In this chapter, Dr. Terryl Givens discusses "The Great Commission" first given by Christ to His apostles to teach the Gospel unto all the world. This commission ran into challenges from the very start. Some of these challenges are still with us and just as relevant today as the LDS church strives to become a global church. Givens asks, "How do you export and disseminate the Gospel in all its purity and goodness to myriad peoples, nationalities, ethnic groups, and societies without the cultural trappings and accretions it has acquired?"
