Go and Tell
"He said to them, 'Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation.'"
— Mark 16:15
These are some of Jesus' last recorded words in Mark's Gospel. Think about who He said them to. The same disciples who ran away when He was arrested. Peter, who denied Him three times. None of them had a résumé. Jesus doesn't wait until they are qualified. He says: 'Go.' The word 'preach' here is not a pulpit. It literally means 'herald' — a person who walks into town and says out loud what just happened. And what just happened? He rose. That's the whole message.
