Episode 222: Matthew 10 From Spectator to Participator

Jesus hand picked 12 men to be his closest disciples and in Matthew 10, we learn their names. Not only that, but we see Jesus giving them the authority to heal the sick and cast out demons as they go to the villages nearby and preach the kingdom of God has come. Up until this point they have been spectators but now they get to be participators! Jesus tells therm the harvest is plentiful but the laborers are few. Nothing much has changed 2000 years later. The harvest is still ready and the workers are still few and far between. Let's get to work!
