From the publisher: Discipleship is how the life, example, and teaching of Jesus touch our lives at the practical level. The Synoptics, John, and Paul portray discipleship in ways that are distinct, yet complementary. 'Following Christ' looks at the different ways in which the New Testament deals with discipleship-from the earliest writings of St. Paul through the Gospels and up to the Book of Revelation. Fr. Ryder walks you through these models, pointing out the diverse and uniquely personal paths that have been walked before. 'Following Christ' is ideal for vocation directors, New Testament scholars, pastors, spiritual directors, study groups, and anyone who wants to see how people in the New Testament responded to Jesus' call. Andrew Ryder, S.C.J., was born in Dublin in 1939. A member of the Priests of the Sacred Heart, he completed his studies in Rome, and since ordination in 1964 has taught theology in Ireland, Britain, and the United States. He has been a pastor in England and Scotland, and served in the Congo.
