Becoming a disciple of Jesus Christ takes a long time. Heck it took those 12 men 3 years of spending everyday with Jesus in His physical presence to be well equipped! Today, we can be in Jesus' presence every day, like the disciples were, through prayer and reading the Bible. It is our prayer that this topical Bible study workbook (aimed at you men out there) will be another way for you to be shaped into a follower (disciple) of Jesus Christ. However, like Jesus' twelve disciples we have to be willing to follow the Master. Are you willing? May God complete the work He began in you! Thomas Gordon Cloud, Jr. (Tommy) is married to Alix and they have 4 children and live in Marietta, Georgia. Thomas struggles with many temptations of his flesh on a daily basis, although he has learned that through Christ he is more than a conqueror. Tommy is thankful for his parents and grandparents that, through word and deed, deliberately left a Christian heritage to him. Tommy's mission in life is "To know, follow, and love Jesus, and encourage others to do the same. And to love his wife as Christ loves the church." Robert Inman Ragsdale III (Trey) is an Atlanta native who attempts to be a servant-follower every day. Trey has been involved for over a decade in improving the world around him at the local, state, national and international levels as a business and community servant, entrepreneur, author & speaker and mentor. Trey feels he is truly blessed to have such a loving and supporting cast of family and friends and a growing relationship with Jesus Christ. He is most proud to be the husband of his wife Erin and the future father of twins (Inman & Madeline) in 2009.
