Send us Fan MailWhat does it mean to truly love God with everything you have? Dr. Scott Martin tackles this fundamental question as he shares his remarkable life journey from an orphaned boy in inner-city Phoenix to a missionary spanning four decades across the world.Scott's story begins in adversity – losing his mother at age eight, never knowing his biological father, and living with his grandmother in challenging circumstances. Yet through the love of a church family who eventually adopted him, Scott discovered his purpose in Christ. This transformation set him on a path that would lead him to minister on university campuses, plant churches in Central Asia, lead national campus ministries, and now embark on a new mission to Iceland in what he calls the "fourth quarter" of his ministry life.At the heart of Scott's message are what he terms "the two greats" – the Great Commandment to love God completely and love others sacrificially, and the Great Commission to make disciples of all nations. He emphasizes that the primary verb in the Great Commission isn't "go" but "make disciples" – a crucial distinction that shapes how we understand our mission as believers. Through powerful stories from his work in Kyrgyzstan and Kazakhstan, Scott demonstrates how God orchestrates divine appointments when we follow His leading.Perhaps most compelling is Scott's account of his calling to Iceland – a nation that has never experienced a Christian awakening in its 1100+ year history, where 99.8% of college-age citizens don't believe in God. Through multiple prophetic confirmations, including discovering that a key Icelandic couple they're meant to disciple were former students in their ministry, Scott and his wife Crystal have witnessed God's supernatural preparation for this new chapter.Are you living as a person of purpose, destiny, and vision? Scott challenges us to evaluate how completely we love God and how willing we are to follow wherever He leads – because our obedience today could be the divine appointment someone else needs to find their eternal destiny.Cornerstonehttps://www.cornerstoneaz.org/Follow Jesushttps://www.cornerstoneaz.org/follow-jesusLife Groups https://www.cornerstoneaz.org/life-groupsGiving https://cornerstoneaz.churchcenter.com/givingChurch Center App - Download then add Cornerstone Christian Center in Avondale, AZiOShttps://itunes.apple.com/us/app/my-church-center/id1357742931?mt=8&ls=1&ign-mpt=uo%3D4Android https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ministrycentered.churchcenter----Instagram https://www.instagram.com/cornerstoneazFacebookhttps://www.facebook.com/cornerstoneaz.orgTwitterhttps://twitter.com/cornerstoneaz.orgCornerstonehttps://www.cornerstoneaz.org/Follow Jesushttps://www.cornerstoneaz.org/follow-...Life Groups https://www.cornerstoneaz.org/life-gr...Giving https://cornerstoneaz.churchcenter.co...Church Center App - Download then add Cornerstone Christian Center in Avondale, AZiOShttps://itunes.apple.com/us/app/my-ch...Android https://play.google.com/store/apps/de...----Instagram cornerstoneaz Facebook cornerstoneaz.org Twitter cornerstoneaz.org
