Product Description
•••••
A contemplative tour of the Holy Gospels placing the timing of the events in chronological sequence - offering further insight into the life and character of each of the Twelve Apostles whom Jesus Christ chose to go out into the world to preach the word of his Kingdom.
In these current times when there are those who seek to alter Christ's gospel (replacing the Kingdom of Christ with that of man), may the particular virtues of each of these saintly Twelve inspire us to remain strong in the defense of Christ's Kingdom - and to never be led astray by the enemies of our Eternal King.

Ms. Christie chronicles the events of Our Lord Jesus Christ’s life on earth in an inspiring way, considering the perspective of each apostle. Each of the 12 chapters is dedicated to one specific apostle and known elements of his background, his apostolic calling, his presence within the gospels, and both his apostolic see and his martyrdom for Christ in the early church. The author’s depth of research about the apostles is evident. Her integration of gospel references, tradition, and contextual speculation related to each apostle’s human character paints beautiful scenes of Our Lord’s divine life. A challenge with this chapter format is the occasional repetition of events across chapters since multiple apostles were typically present in these events. However, the author’s exploration into particular themes relevant to each apostle makes the placement of gospel events well suited. Overall, a valuable resource for recognizing the humanity of each apostle and their transformations into soldiers of Christ.
