About the Author

Dr. C. David Jones pastored  eighteen churches in Kansas,  Washington, Maryland and  Georgia. He was Dean of  the College of Fellows, the  Academy of Parish Clergy  and a charter member of  the American Association  of Christian Counselors. He  was an adjunct professor at  Essex College, Baltimore,  Maryland, The Theological  School of Drew University, Madison, New Jersey, and  Loyola College, Columbia, Maryland. He authored  numerous published articles and four books The Pastoral  Mentor, The Minyan, The Apostles of Jesus Christ, and  David’s Mighty Men. He appeared in two movies about  the Apostles of Jesus Christ: Miraculous Mission and  Twelve Ordinary Men.  THE RABBI JESUS of Nazareth chose twelve men to form  his own itinerant minyan to travel with him wherever he  went throughout his earthly ministry. A “minyan” is the  number of adult Jews required to form a synagogue or to  conduct Hebrew worship as a congregation. Today the  quorum is ten. Originally the number was twelve – the  same number of the original twelve tribes of Israel. The  book THE APOSTLES OF JESUS CHRIST – Men Who  Turned the World Upside-Down gives a well researched  account of the lives and ministries of John the Baptist,  Jesus Christ and the thirteen Apostles who were members  of his traveling “synagogue.”
