The Twelve

Philip

The Practical Questioner

Description

From Bethsaida, Philip immediately brought Nathanael to Christ. His practical, calculating nature appears in his questions about feeding the multitude and showing the Father. Despite his slowness to grasp spiritual truths, his earnest seeking characterized his discipleship.
