Mark 6:6 KJV
And he marvelled because of their unbelief. And he went round about the villages, teaching.
The impressive thing is that, though there were those who did not believe, still Jesus travelled, connected with people and taught.
I heard someone called a "people collector" today. What a wonderful characteristic to have, especially if that person collects people to hear and receive the Word of God. The work of the ministry might be described this way:
Going round aboutNot sitting still, not allowing yourself to get settled but to be on the move, being where people are.
The villages
Not just around your friends and family and those you know and are comfortable with, but those in other places: small places as well as large places, not merely seeking to win the multitudes but willing to reach the one or two.
Teaching
People need to hear the Word of God, clearly presented and accurately expounded, which necessarily requires that time has been spent in study so that we may the more effectively teach.
