“As the Father has sent me, I am sending you." (John 20:21)

Jesus came from a poor family – he was the son of a carpenter, a status not looked favourably upon.  Moreover, Nazareth (Jesus’ hometown), was a place that did not merit notice compared to neighbouring towns.

Jesus taught in a way that was distinct from that of the chief priests.  The chief priests orated in synagogue while Jesus preached on the hills and by the seaside.  Jesus said, “Foxes have lurking holes and the birds of the air have roosts and nests, but the Son of Man has no place to lay His head”.

Jesus never made special arrangements before traveling to a destination.  He only asked that the disciples preach in pairs in places that He would be, preaching the importance of repentance to the people there in advance.

The miracles that he performed and the content of his teachings – they were all done in spontaneity.  We can say that Jesus preached as He was driven by the Holy Spirit. 

Jesus requested that we do the same in His name – to comfort, bless and serve brothers and sisters in all corners of the Earth.
