Translations:Home as a Place of Service/5/en

But it all started much earlier. Jesus used homes (his own and many others) to minister to people. There are a few examples in Matt. 8:14-16, 9:9-13, 13:36, Luke 19:5 John 3:1-6, 12:1-9. It is written in many places that Jesus was teaching in synagogues. But don’t miss the fact that when He sent out the 12 apostles or the other 72 disciples He gave them very strict orders where to go and minister. In both Matt. 10 and Luke 10 Jesus told his disciples to find a home and stay there. The strategy Jesus taught His disciples was, to minister from a home.
