Tom's book is highly encouraging and edifying for Christians, both teen and adult alike. He engages thoughtfully with the original disciples of Jesus as presented in the Gospels, and he bridges the contextual gap to us today helpfully. Tom's conversational writing style and his humour shine through, making this an easy read for all.
