Abstract

Abstract. This study aimed to present the response of Generation Z Pentecostals in Indonesia to the Great Commission in the context of cultural and religious pluralism in Indonesia. Generation Z is characterized by upholding the value of plurality, thus facing challenges in harmonizing tolerance with the call to fulfill the Great Commission. The method used in this study was a qualitative method by conducting in-depth interviews with 11 participants active in Pentecostal churches in Indonesia. The result showed that Generation Z Pentecostals in Indonesia still view the Great Commission as an important task of faith while respecting diversity. The Great Commission is implemented through an open dialogue approach, concrete actions in daily life, and the use of social media.
