The Twelve Apostles
The Twelve Apostles of Jesus, and What Each One's Life Shows Us
Jesus did not write a book or build an army; He called twelve ordinary men and gave His life to them. Fishermen, a tax collector, a zealot, a doubter, a betrayer. Each page below tells who the apostle was and his part in the Gospels, distinguishes honestly what Scripture records from what later tradition reports, and shows how his life points back to the One who called him.
