"What does God desire most from our lives and ministry?"
This was a question asked by Jeff and Val Sutton in May of 1994 when they began praying for a name for the ministry God was placing in their hearts. After some deep reflection it was clear that the answer was summed up best by Jesus in Matthew 22. Great Commandments Ministries was handed to us by Jesus Himself, a name that has continually caused us to focus on life's simple mission: to love God with all of our heart, mind, soul and strength and to love our neighbors as ourselves. Over the years some have commented that the name is too long; people have wondered what it means; people have called it "Great Commandment" (as if there was only one!). But for us this has been more than a name; it has been a mandate to commit to a simple purpose: to raise up lovers of Christ with passion to serve. So it was that in May of 1994, GCM was born.
Great Commandments Ministries is a non-denominational ministry located in Tieton, Washington. Our mission is focused on raising up and releasing young adults to enter the harvest, seeking nothing more than to glorify God and advance His Kingdom through their lives and ministry.
The ministries of GCM include Antioch Christian Training School (ACTS), Pneuma, Mobile Impact Teams and various International Ministries.
