John F. O'Grady

John O'Grady traces the development of ministry and leadership roles through the New Testament and first century, and clearly spells out the connections between these roles and being a disciple imitating Jesus' own ways.

MEN IN THE BIBLE explores the lives of twelve men whose lives figure prominently in Scripture--six each from the Old and New Testaments. Throughout the text, John O'Grady is careful to keep these stories in perspective and focuses on the historical and archaeological evidence surrounding them.

A Roman Catholic priest and professor of biblical theology explores the origins of many revered Catholic beliefs and traditions in a book that will not only appeal to Catholics and other Christians, but to thoughtful people of all religions or none, who seek a better comprehension of the Catholic traditons so important to general world historical development, theology, and interdenominational understanding.
