Lead:

Jesus sends out the seventy-two, and Moses makes a point about being serious about following God on God’s terms.

Intro:

Every day I pray for an opportunity to share Jesus with someone. Yesterday I didn't leave the house (except for a walk). But when I called the storage unit place to pay rent over the phone, the gal was all alone and quite talkative. After a bit the conversation turned to this cultural moment, then the issue of who to trust, and I had a chance to say, "Well, all good here, because I trust Jesus." Silence. Nope, it wasn't 'sharing the gospel,' but it was a chance to lift up Christ. Prayer answered.
