Jesus had only three years to train 12 people, none of whom were divine, to

go out and change the world, and that he trained them so effectively that

they went on to do the work after he left. I asked, 'What did he do with

these people to turn them into such lean, clean marketing machines? What

skills did he possess that we could duplicate or learn from? Jesus and the

apostles were an example of a team working together under the guidance of a

man with a visionary plan, clearly defined goals, and the wisdom to train

the next generation of leadership
