Jesus finished recruiting 11 disciples in Matt. 4:22, and then toured throughout Galilee and Syria long enough to convert large crowds from all around the region of the Jordan on both sides of the river per Matt. 4:23-25, which would take several months at least, before preaching the Sermon on the Mount that is recorded in MT 5-7. Afterward he healed a leper, encountered a centurion, calmed Lake Galilee, killed some pigs, forgave a paralyzed man, recruited Matthew, raised a dead girl and healed some folks in MT 8&9 before going on another tour of many towns, which would take several more weeks, so it seems reasonable to think that these events took about a year or two.
Because the disciples were sent out in MT 11:1 and were with Jesus again at the beginning of chapter 12, apparently their chapter-long mission took only a few days or a couple of weeks.

I see "Cliff notes" to events, that have happened or are going. to happen
I see the only Doctrine to stand on, for me is:
Christ willingly got crucified for the sins of the entire world from day one in first Adam to this very present second, moving forward continually. This was not revealed until Christ Risen
Then the truth was/is complete for us to rest in and not be arrogant, proud or boastful over, being given it. Those given this remain humble, to me at least and not be anyone better than anyone else as in Luke 18:9-14 tells me of and as well Matthew 18:24-35
That is the Gospel to me

He is risen as Father waits patiently for the next person to commit to Father and Son as One (Won for us to be new and continue to learn new daily in love and mercy to all, as are given first on that cross of Jesus, to me at least thank you Father
