Mark 6:7-13 – 7Calling the Twelve to him, he sent them out two by two and gave them authority over evil spirits. 8These were his instructions: "Take nothing for the journey except a staff--no bread, no bag, no money in your belts. 9Wear sandals but not an extra tunic. 10Whenever you enter a house, stay there until you leave that town. 11And if any place will not welcome you or listen to you, shake the dust off your feet when you leave, as a testimony against them." 12They went out and preached that people should repent. 13They drove out many demons and anointed many sick people with oil and healed them.
Observation:
• What did Jesus instruct his twelve disciples to do?
• What did he tell the disciples to do if they were not welcomed?
• What did the disciples preach to the people?
• What else did they do to the people?
Application:
• Why do you think Jesus sent the disciples out in pairs?
• Why do you think Jesus gave the disciples directions about what to wear and what to bring along with them?
• Why do you think Jesus gave the disciples directions about what to do in place where they are not welcomed?
• What does it mean to repent? Why were the disciples preaching?
• What happened in the places where the disciples preached?
