At one of the lowest points in his life, Henri Nouwen gave a series
of lectures on the importance of following Jesus in an age of
anxiety. This new work from the archives of the Nouwen estate draws
on those talks. It reveals the deep turmoil and sometimes chaotic
inner life of the man who has become an icon of compassion and
vulnerability for Christians and non-Christians alike. Nouwen
writes eloquently about calling and purpose, fear and hope and
explains why, with so many choices available to 21st century
seekers - including atheism and secularism - the greatest reward
for those looking for fulfilment is to choose belief in God. Along
the way he offers warm, insightful, practical spiritual practices
to help readers navigate the narrow, sometimes arduous, but
ultimately fulfilling road of conviction and faith.

The Training of the Twelve tells us in detail how Jesus chose and
trained the twelve apostles, imbuing each with the knowledge and
instruction that would become the founding wisdom of Christianity.
We find in this book a detailed and intensive Biblical biography,
with chapters dedicated to each of the twelve. The methods which
Jesus Christ uses in selecting his disciples is examined, as we
witness the various episodes in his existence. Bruce's narrative is
chronological, and it is useful for the reader to have a Bible to
hand to better understand and comprehend the lessons present in the
text. A. B. Bruce also includes soundly reasoned passages on the
identity of three unnamed apostles. Alexander Balmain Bruce worked
for decades in the Free Church of Scotland, preaching and studying
Bible lore. His commentaries were popular during his lifetime, with
translations made to other languages - notably, he was among the
few Scottish Biblical theologians to gain the approval and respect
of German scholars.
