In this message Pastor Trenton teaches from Mark 6:7-13. Disciples of Jesus can press on in the mission of God because they have everything they need in the person of God. That is what we explore in this sermon.
Jesus Sends The Twelve
Mark 6:7-13
And Jesus came and said to them, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. 19 Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.” - Matthew 28:18-20
WHY IS PARTICIPATING IN THE MISSION OF GOD DAILY SO DIFFICULT?
FEAR
Fear of being incapable
Fear of being uncomfortable
Fear of being rejected
And he called the twelve and began to send them out two by two, and gave them authority over the unclean spirits. He charged them to take nothing for their journey except a staff—no bread, no bag, no money in their belts— but to wear sandals and not put on two tunics. And he said to them, “Whenever you enter a house, stay there until you depart from there. And if any place will not receive you and they will not listen to you, when you leave, shake off the dust that is on your feet as a testimony against them.” So they went out and proclaimed that people should repent. And they cast out many demons and anointed with oil many who were sick and healed them. - Mark 6:7-13
