Mark 6:6–13

Jesus sent out the Twelve — two by two, with nothing but a walking stick and their sandals. Why twelve? And why send them out with nothing? In this episode, we go all the way back to Jacob and the twelve tribes of Israel to discover what Jesus was really doing — and we learn that the power to do His work is always a gift He gives, never something we pack, earn, or figure out on our own.

In this episode:

Why the number twelve points all the way back to Jacob and the twelve tribes of Israel
How the first twelve tribes struggled to do their job — and how Jesus started fresh with a new twelve
What it meant to travel with "nothing" — and who the disciples had to trust
What it means to repent
