Sending The Twelve - Mark 6:7-13 Series

Contributed by Darrell Ferguson on Oct 19, 2023

After many months of training, Jesus finally sends out the 12 to preach. He empowers them with the same miracles he did to show they were doing his work by his authority and power. Rejection of them meant forfeiting Jewishness.
