Jesus' sending of the twelve reflects important principles of Christian ministry. Jesus' instructions included sending out in pairs for support, how to endure failure, and looking for those who could be bridges for God's work. Doing God's work involves hardship and dealing with people that are unresponsive to Christ, but is extremely rewarding and exciting. This teaching included a testimony about the joy of serving God.
