Jesus proclaimed His mission in Luke chapter four, proved it in chapter five, and practiced His mission throughout the rest of the book. Jesus continuously taught and trained His disciples, challenging others to become partners with Him in His mission. The first example was his recruiting of Simon Peter to follow and become a “fisher of men.” Jesus demonstrated His mission in three parables: a shepherd seeks his lost sheep, a woman seeks a lost coin, and a father seeks a lost son. We need to share the heart of the Father for all His children.
