Abstract

This research begins with author’s search on the history of the entry of the Bible in Tanjungpinang since 1983. The increase and development of churches in Tanjungpinang does not necessarily have a significant impact on the increase in the number of new believers. Therefore, this research aims to assess the church’s responses to the responsibility in sharing the gospel. This study uses a qualitative method with a descriptive survey approach through interviews, triangulation and Member Check to identify and explain the responsibilities of the church in Tanjungpinang City for the mission and evangelism of the Malays in the city of Tanjungpinang. From the data that has been collected, the researchers get the results that the church in Tanjungpinang City has not fully carried out its responsibilities in mission and evangelism services. This is due to the different understanding of church leaders to be involved in fulfilling the great commission of the Lord Jesus Christ. Research Contribution: This research helps the church leaders in Tanjungpinang to respond to God’s calling and partner in unity in Mission. Church leaders should give priority to mission partnerships in Tanjungpinang. Identifying and moving with the key issues in Mission can enable Christians in Tanjungpinang to finish the work of The Great Commission.
