Sending and the cost of being sent - Audio

Jesus sends out his disciples two-by-two, with instructions to take nothing and to stay where they are received. They were given power over unclean spirits and the power to heal. They preached repentance, cast out demons and healed those who were sick. This is followed by the account of how John the Baptist died at the hands of Herod, after Herod promised his wife's daughter anything she wanted, and the wife asked for John's head on a platter. This shows that there is a cost to being sent.
