Sent With Nothing — The Courage to Go & The Power of Community

In this compelling and timely sermon, we reflect on Jesus' commissioning of the 70 disciples in Luke 10 — sending them out with nothing but faith, vulnerability, and the message that "the kingdom of God has come near." What does it mean to travel lightly, depend on others, and bring peace to places that may or may not receive it?

As Bethany prepares to send a mission team to Riobamba, Ecuador — our first in 10 years — we consider the radical trust and humility it takes to serve, to receive, and to love our neighbors, especially those living on the margins.

Are we willing to let go of what weighs us down and share the Gospel with open hearts and open hands?
