Discover how the Master shaped His disciples for greatness, even with their imperfections. This book explores the lives of the twelve ordinary men chosen by Jesus, revealing that greatness is not dependent on perfection but on God's power working through weakness.
The New Testament showcases the many flaws of Jesus's original disciples – fishermen, tax collectors, and zealots who were prone to mistakes, doubt, and failure. Yet, under Jesus's guidance, their weaknesses were transformed into strength, enabling them to become a force that profoundly changed the world.
Delve into the inner circle of these men: their selection, training, personalities, and lasting impact. The book examines why Jesus chose these specific individuals and how He imparted His teachings in a short period. It offers insights into how the lessons Jesus taught His disciples continue to influence faith today.
Twelve Ordinary Men demonstrates that God's strength is perfected in human weakness. By understanding the lives of those who walked with Jesus, readers can see the potential for God to accomplish His purposes through them as well.
