"I really enjoyed the book (audio) - it was very insightful and helpful. The title is fitting and profound. Christ did not call 12 religious elite or 12 men of greatness but instead used 12 ordinary and fallible men to spread the message of his kingdom. His gospel changed their lives so that they could in turn could use it to changes other's lives. What comes through clearest in this book (other than the history) is the last shall be first and the kingdom will be forwarded through service and putting ourselves last."
"I didn't know much about the 12 disciples of Jesus, and this book tells about each of them individually, and tells their strengths. Like Andrew does not get mentioned much in the Bible, but as brother of Peter, was likely helping Peter a lot of the time, so probably Peter would not have been as effective a leader without his brother supporting him in the background."
"Very good description/definition of the twelve disciples. MacArthur writes so that there is something for everyone; whether you are new to the bible or more experienced I believe there will be something for every reader. Rather than just throwing names, places and events out there, MacArthur provides a backdrop to the times and goings on in order to get a clearer picture of who these twelve men were and why they were selected. This book will serve as a great reference guide when reading my Bible."
