This book is very helpful in understanding how the Great Commission is carried not on the backs of individual Christians but on the back of local churches.

God means to fulfill the Great Commission through local churches.
How did the apostles and the churches of the New Testament obey the Great Commission? By gathering Christians together in churches. The church is God’s plan for evangelism, discipleship, and the Great Commission. This connection between the Great Commission and the church dramatically impacts how both leaders and members should think about their work of making disciples. We do it together.
