Yes, the disciples were eyewitnesses to Jesus’ life and ministry, yet we don’t see one recorded time in Scripture where they petitioned Jesus, “Teach us to preach.” We don’t see one recorded time where they said, “Teach us to heal,” “Teach us to prophesy,” or “Teach us to do miracles.” After spending three and a half years with the Son of God, they requested, “Lord, teach us to pray” (Luke 11:1).
