Recently I taught through Matthew 10 at our Friday morning Man in the Mirror Bible Study. I described the chapter as "Jesus Pilot Tests the Great Commission."
After spending two years with his disciples, Jesus selected the 12 men he wanted, then sent them to pilot test his strategy for Total Global Conquest. The Great Commission is for us too.
