The Search for the Twelve Apostles

About this book

Uncover the lives of the men who came face-to-face with Jesus Christ.

Simon Peter, Andrew, James the son of Zebedee, John, Philip, Bartholomew, Thomas, Matthew, James the son of Alphaeus, Jude, Simon, Judas, and Matthias—what happened to the men who answered Jesus' call to follow him? What impact did they have on the world? Where did they go and what did they do after Jesus' resurrection and ascension?

In these fascinating profiles, Dr. McBirnie offers readers a snapshot of the lives of each apostle. An enlightening read for pastors, church leaders, or any Christian seeking to put their faith in context, this book provides deep insight into the early church and New Testament Christian history. Dr. McBirnie's information was compiled by:
  • Traveling to places where the apostles lived and visited
  • Studying the Scriptures and biblical history
  • Listening to local traditions
  • Engaging in his own original research
Picking up where the book of Acts leaves off, McBirnie brings these men to life as he explores the legends, traditions, and real lives of the Twelve as they built the foundation of Christianity.
