Publisher's Synopsis
What's most amazing about the men Jesus chose to be his disciples is that they weren't saints or scholars or religious sages: they were ordinary men-fishermen, tax collectors, and political zealots-men whose many weaknesses have been forever preserved in the pages of the New Testament. These were men who were made remarkable not through their circumstances but through their willingness to be available and obedient to the Master's call. It was because of that willingness that Jesus's teaching and touch were able to transform the hopelessly human individuals that surrounded him into a force that forever changed the world. This book, written by one of most trusted biblical teachers today, draws on principles from Christ's careful, hands-on training of those original twelve disciples to reveal how you, too, can be a disciple of Christ - because if Christ can accomplish His purposes through the lives of common men like His disciples, imagine what He has in store for you!
