The Life and Teachings of ChristSteve Gregg
In this talk, Steve Gregg discusses the process of how Jesus chose the twelve disciples, as found in the gospel of Mark. Although there are no indications that Jesus initially intended to select exactly twelve disciples, this number does hold significance in relation to the twelve tribes of Israel. Jesus wanted to establish a higher quality relationship with a select group of individuals to groom them for leadership. The designation of apostles and their role in preaching was also discussed.
