The Way of the Rabbi

Description

The Way of the Rabbi: Stories of Discipleship from the Gospel of Mark is not just another book about discipleship. Instead, it is a story of discipleship, favouring possibilities over prescription and imagination over instruction. Author Jim Schirmer follows the Gospel of Mark scene-by-scene, exploring each vignette for how Jesus calls, relates, challenges, leads and ultimately upturns those who would be his apprentices. Rather th an giving directions to follow, it leaves us questions to answer in our own lives – questions that might just enable us to envisage what the Way of Rabbi Jesus could look like if people took up his apprenticeship today.
