Again Jesus said, “Peace be with you! As the Father has sent me, I am sending you.” John 20:21 NIV
We are sent - yes
But to where, among whom, doing what?
Ed Stetzer, Second Opinions, chapter, verse... foriegn African dancing, punks, country music... all people, not your natural cohorts.
Then Jesus came to them and said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.” Matthew 28:18-20 NIV
With a message
and repentance for the forgiveness of sins will be preached in his name to all nations, beginning at Jerusalem. Luke 24:47 NIV
And with that he breathed on them and said, “Receive the Holy Spirit. If you forgive anyone’s sins, their sins are forgiven; if you do not forgive them, they are not forgiven.” John 20:22-23 NIV
