At our conference we studied Matthew 10 & 11 to discover Jesus’ effective gospel witness in a culture that opposes Christianity. Our guest speaker, Susie Rowan, shared how Jesus sends out the disciples on their first mission which is anything but comfortable. Jesus ministers to us in hard places while we become equipped to move out of our comfort zones to effectively minister to those around us.
