“One of the greatest discrepancies of our time is between the limitless, God-given resources at the Church’s disposal and the limited impact it is making on the world. Ronnie Floyd shows that it doesn’t have to be this way any longer. We don’t have to be a generation of wasted potential. We can turn the world the world upside down with the gospel. Our Last Great Hope shows us how.”

Steven Furtick – Lead Pastor, Elevation Church & Author, Sun Stand Still

“In Our Last Great Hope, Ronnie calls us to get honest with ourselves about how we are working to help those in desperate need for a Savior. He challenges us to engage the next generation to do the work that Jesus himself called us to do. A must read.”

Greg Surratt – Lead Pastor, Seacoast Church & Author, IR-REV-REND

“Ronnie Floyd’s book could revolutionize the way we think about the body of Christ and its purpose. Read it and be inspired, changed, and equipped for our most important mission while on this Earth.”

 Dr. Bruce Wilkinson – Best Selling Author, The Prayer of Jabez

“Ronnie’s book brings us back to center, crystallizes the pure message of Jesus Christ, and equips the church with how to begin doing these things today. Never before has the church so desperately needed the wisdom and direction offered in these pages. I’ll be pulling this book off my shelf again and again!”

Pete Wilson – Author, Plan B and Empty Promises

“Ronnie Floyd approaches missions-centered living with heart, passion, and inspired strategy. This book is an energizing wake-up call to today’s churches, equipping and inspiring us to pursue unreached millions around the world with the saving love of Christ.”

Dr. Ed Stetzer – Director, LifeWay Research

“My friend and co-laborer for the gospel, Ronnie Floyd, calls true believers and the church to return to the clear proclamation of the One who is our last great hope, Jesus Christ. His call is passionate—do it now. His message is purposeful—go make disciples. His book is practical—read it and learn. I commend it to you.”

Dr. James MacDonald – Senior Pastor, Harvest Bible Chapel

“Ronnie Floyd calls us to an urgent personalization of the Great Commission. Our Last Great Hope outlines a strategy and provides practical action points on how to penetrate the lostness of the nations. This book will fan the flames of awakening in your soul.”

Dr. Ted Traylor – Pastor, Olive Baptist Church, Pensacola, FL

“Revival presumes pre-existing life. But so many churches are populated by pretenders, assuming they have life when in fact they are spiritually dead. That’s why for many years now, I have been urging the true believers of America’s churches to pray for another great spiritual awakening. It is out of such awakenings that the course of nations has been radically altered, churches have experienced renewed surrender to the Lordship of Christ, and church members have been catapulted around the globe in answer to the missionary call. In this book, my friend Ronnie Floyd addresses the concept of awakening with his typical intensity and passion, leaving no question as to its necessity. I believe God will use this book to stir the Body of Christ to pray for what Floyd calls ‘our last great hope.’”

Dr. Tom Elliff – President of the International Mission Board

“Ronnie Floyd has done it again! Our Last Great Hope is one of the best, if not the best, training resource to help us move forward with Great Commission fulfillment in our lifetime.

Dr. Johnny M. Hunt – Pastor, FBC Woodstock & Former President, Southern Baptist Convention

 “There’s no denying that Ronnie Floyd’s life has been changed because of a renewed passion and all-or-nothing commitment to the Great Commission. Pick up this book and you can’t help but be pulled in by his excitement. Ronnie challenges us to ask, do we really love Christ passionately, and if we do, are we willing to do whatever it takes to follow through on His Great Commission challenge? Ronnie challenges us to see that if we are to seriously embrace that charge it will mean dramatic change in our personal lives, our families, our churches and our finances. This book asks a lot—nothing less than a sold-out heart and life. But it’s just what Christians and the church need if we are to share with the world Our Last Great Hope.”

Dr. Kevin Ezell – President, North American Mission Board

 “Ronnie Floyd inspires me to trust our risen Lord to do extraordinary things through my most ordinary life and my most mediocre moments. The transparency found in Pastor Floyd’s words are both convicting and convincing. The time for change is now. Our Last Great Hope should be your first required read.”

Dr. Bryant Wright – Senior Pastor, Johnson Ferry Baptist Church, Marietta, GA & President, Southern Baptist Convention

“Frequently a long pastorate grows stale. Not so with Dr. Ronnie Floyd, who has led his church to do precisely what he writes about here, namely, to undertake the task of getting the gospel to the whole world in every conceivable way. This is not a book of theory. This is a book of about what has happened in Northwest Arkansas. Its message will encourage every pastor!”

Dr. Paige Patterson – Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary, Fort Worth, Texas

“We have heard about, preached about, talked about and taught about the Great Commission . . . but how many of us are consumed by it and truly know the magnitude of what it entails?  I know of no one with a passion for Christ, His Word and His church like Ronnie Floyd.  He has beaten out every one of the principles in this book on the anvil of his own personal experience.  Read it and you too will be convinced it is . . . Our Last Great Hope!”

Dr. O. S. Hawkins – President and Chief Executive Officer, & GuideStone Financial Resources of the Southern Baptist Convention

“Ronnie Floyd is giving the church a book on the Great Commission that pastors and church members can read and personalize.  He also shares practical things a church, a family, and an individual can do daily and weekly that allow them to be a part of the Great Commission.”

Bob Roberts – Senior Pastor, NorthWood Church & Author, Real-Time Connections and Global Engager

 “Our Last Great Hope is an inspiring, engaging, visionary, and informative work from the pastoral and missional heart of Ronnie Floyd. I pray that this book will be used of God to strengthen Christ-followers and church leaders for the lofty and demanding call that has been given to the churches in this global and challenging context of the twenty-first century.”

Dr. David S. Dockery – President, Union University

 “We have an emergency due to a lack of urgency.  With souls in the balance and millions who have yet to hear the gospel, Our Last Great Hope calls every believer to the forefront of fulfilling the Great Commission.  Dr. Ronnie Floyd passionately calls upon every Christian to get to the front lines of sharing the message of Jesus to a lost and dying world.”

Dudley Rutherford – Pastor of Shepherd of the Hills Church, Porter Ranch, CA

“In Our Last Great Hope, pastor Ronnie Floyd challenges those who follow King Jesus to personally own the Great Commission, to come to a place where we find it inconceivable to leave the work to others. Every church should be a Great Commission church. Every Christian should be a Great Commission Christian. This book will help its readers see how.”

Dr. Daniel L. Akin – President, Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary

“The Christian’s Mount Everest is the fulfillment of the Great Commission.  No previous generation has ever placed the cross of Christ on the roof of the world.  Dr. Ronnie Floyd’s remarkable book, Our Last Great Hope, causes us to get real about the enormous size of this global mountain and creates Christ-centered hope of scaling it in our lifetime!  Once you have read this profound resource, you will view your remaining moments and years as currency either spent on endless trash or invested into eternal treasure.  Read it now and reap forever!”

Dr. James O. Davis – Cofounder, Billion Soul Network, Orlando, Florida

“Ronnie Floyd does not spin theories or weave conjectures; he challenges, convicts, and calls the church to a deeper commitment to reach the world for Jesus Christ. What Ronnie Floyd writes, he not only believes . . . he lives out.”

Dr. Mac Brunson – Senior Pastor, First Baptist Church, Jacksonville, FL

“Ronnie Floyd is a straight shooter with the ability to both encourage and challenge.  That’s what you will find in these pages—the encouragement that the Lord is at work through us and the challenge that we need to say yes to everything He calls us to do.  Read this book to sharpen your heart and move toward becoming the Great Commission believer Christ desires!”

Gregg Matte – Pastor, Houston’s First Baptist Church & Author, Finding God’s Will
