For most of his public ministry Jesus was based in his home district of Galilee, in northern Israel. This series describes the opening phase of that ministry which was characterised by powerful preaching, dramatic miracles and huge crowds gathering. Jesus made a sensational impact. From his new base in Capernaum Jesus began to travel around the district in his first tour and he started to gather followers, or disciples.

After delivering the Sermon on the Mount Jesus embarks on another tour of Galilee. He returns to places he has been before as well as going to new places. This time the key factor is that he is accompanied by his twelve key disciples (the apostles). This is a vital time of training of them as they watch Jesus teach, perform miracles and deal with the needs and demands of the crowds. Jesus also starts to teach in parables. Significant opposition from the religious authorities based in Jerusalem appears at this time.

The third tour of Galilee is different from the previous two tours because Jesus commissions and sends the twelve disciples to travel around in pairs preaching and performing miracles just as they had seen him do previously. The training of the second tour was to be put into practice. Meanwhile Jesus also continued to travel around and preach. During this tour we can see that opposition to Jesus is beginning to grow amongst some people.
