On this episode of Preaching the Text, John Hoyum and Steve Paulson discuss the sending of the seventy-two preachers. We learn here that Christ's word is met often with rejection, which should not discourage the preacher. Rather, the word of the gospel will create faith in the sinner, and instigate rejection in the proud.
