PERIOD 3: MINISTRY TRAINING AND PERIOD 4: EXPANDED OUTREACH  Periods 3 and 4 are happening simultaneously but represent two distinct periods. We see Jesus forming and training an expanding mission team as well as mobilizing for broader sowing and making new disciples. Jesus focussed in on a few and mobilized them for expanded mission experience.


 * New home
 * Call to follow
 * Fishing Trips
 * Popularity and Conflict

PERIOD 5:	LEADERSHIP MULTIPLICATION  This period last from the appointing of the 12 Apostles to Jesus’ ascension back to heaven. It last about 15 months. The priorities were: selecting proven disciple makers, developing their leadership and sending them to continue the Father’s Kingdom agenda and mission. We see Jesus appointing, training, handing over and releasing the movement to the next generation of multipliers.


 * Fall 28 AD - Appointment of the 12 Apostles – a strategic development of multiplication of leadership (apostle means “Sent One”): 


 * Early 29 AD - Execution of John after 1-1.5 years in prison: Matthew 14:3-12 (Mark 6:17-29)


 * March 30 AD - Climax of the work and the will of the Father in final Passover and passion week - Crucifixion/atonement/resurrection/ascension: Luke 19:29-24:53 (Matthew 26:6-28:20; Mark 11:1-16:20; John 11:55-John 21:25; Acts 1:1-11)

'''Beyond Period 5: Multiplication of the movement itself. April 30 AD – Pentecost'''


 * The resurrected Jesus commissions his followers sending them as he was sent from the Father to continue that same mission: John 20:19-25
 * The church is launched through the Power of the Holy Spirit and sent to do the “greater works” (John 14:12) that continue Jesus’ same mission to multiply movements of multiplying disciplemakers across cultures and through all time. (Acts 1:8; Acts 2:5; 22-24; 37-47)
