The Art of the Apostles
Jesus had lots of followers, sometimes he had thousands of people listening to him teach and watching the miracles being performed. The disciples abandoned everything to follow Christ—careers, families, and their former life—and by doing so they spread the Gospel of the Kingdom to much of the known world at that time. Included in this pictorial study are paintings from some of the most famous portraitists in the world who captured the vision, mood, and determination of "the Twelve" including Judas Iscariot, Matthias, and of course, the Apostle Paul. Each profile has a two-page biography of known ministry and travel. Today, Christ is still calling disciples and apostles and empowering them with the same Spirit as the Twelve. In our words and our deeds, may we continue to tell the story of Jesus.
