Pastor Mike Anderson -- Last week we looked at the parable of soil and the seed. As we are fertile soil and respond and not resist God's word, Jesus can create great results through us. This week in Mark, Jesus sends the twelve apostles out to be his ambassadors in the world. They were going out on behalf of Jesus and they needed to represent him well. So, what does an ambassador of Jesus look like? And how can we be Christ's ambassadors in world filled with so much darkness?
