The Great Commission in Matthew 28:19–20 constitutes a universal mandate for the church to proclaim the gospel and make disciples of all nations. The development of digital technology presents both opportunities and challenges for Christian mission, particularly in reaching Generation Z. This study aims to analyze technology-based Christian mission strategies for reaching Generation Z. This study employs a descriptive qualitative method through a literature review of the Great Commission, Generation Z, and digital technology in Christian mission. The findings indicate that digital technology can serve as an effective means of expanding the reach of evangelism and supporting discipleship. However, mission effectiveness is not determined by technological sophistication but by the church’s ability to communicate the gospel authentically, contextually, and with a focus on disciple-making. Therefore, digital strategies should be accompanied by relational engagement, integrity, spiritual depth, and a Christian witness that reflects the character of Christ.
