Luke 10:1-20

Pastor Jon Bryars preaches from Luke 10:1-20, examining Jesus' commissioning of seventy-two disciples and sending them out in pairs to proclaim that the kingdom of God has come near. The sermon focuses on the urgency and vulnerability of gospel mission, as the disciples are sent like lambs among wolves, carrying no purse, bag, or sandals, and depending entirely on the hospitality of those who receive them. Pastor Bryars draws out the contrast between towns that welcome the message and towns that reject it, grounding the call to mission in Jesus' authority over both harvest and spiritual opposition.
