Hello, my friends. Welcome to another Follow Him favorites. You know the drill, me and the

incredible John, by the way. Welcome, John. Thanks, Hank. We answer just a single question

from this week's Come Follow Me lesson, hoping to just give you the frosting from the lesson.

Today we're going to be in Matthew chapter 10 and John, our question is, what do you think

it's like to be an apostle? In Matthew chapter 10, Jesus calls his 12 apostles and then gives them

their commission, what they're supposed to do. What do you think? I have no idea. What I do think

is they were willing to try. They weren't perfect. I love that he has them do the same things that

he would do. Verse 7, go preach and go heal the sick and everything. And I guess they had to learn

as they went and I'm so glad the Lord is patient with us that way because we're not called to be

What do you think? I think it'd be just overwhelming to hear the words like, I send you forth as

sheep in the midst of wolves. That was not in my mission call. Or verse 22, you will be hated

of all men for my name's sake. And fear not them, which can kill the body. This is not the best

I think of modern day apostles and how they must feel with that weight of I send you forth as sheep

in the midst of wolves. You'll be hated by people. Don't fear them, which can kill the body,

but can kill the soul. I think, oh goodness, what a blessing apostles are for us every six months.

We get to hear from these apostles who have literally given their lives. We watch present

months and give his whole life. We just watched him go from wiggling his ears down to can barely stand

up. And we've seen that with so many other apostles and prophets. How wonderful it is that we have

men like this and their spouses who dedicate their entire lives to the Lord. Yeah. And their

spouses and their families who see them go off every week. It seems and to have dedicated their
