The quest for meaning and purpose dwells within all of us. Jesus insisted that its fulfillment lay in a relationship with him. But what does that relationship look like—really?Apprentice calls spiritual pilgrims, both Christians and non-Christians, to exchange the shallow diversions of secular and religious culture for the pursuit of our true desires. In a book of refreshing honesty, great heart, and rich creativity, Steve Chalke guides us into an apprenticeship with the master teacher, Jesus. Embarking on a relational journey that engages us on every level, we walk with Jesus in an organic, whole-life learning experience, exploring ten areas foundational to the meaning and depth we crave.Apprentice encourages us to ask our most probing questions, embrace our doubts, and learn why we are driven to belong. Combining story and parable with thoughtful commentary, we discover the ancient art and discipline of apprenticeship— living lives stamped with the character, presence, and impact of Jesus.

Steve Chalke is a great contemporary Christian thinker. This book is about applying the Bible to everyday living. I enjoyed every minute

Short but thought provoking

I’ve been a Christian for several decades and almost never read this Ω‘kind’ of book. Why? One reason is that, being blind, I didn’t have a great choice of reading matter before roughly 2010. Another reason is that I read to relax: mostly fiction. “Apprentice”, apologetics, theology, self-help, devotional etc. rightly or wrongly, feels like work to me. There’s a 3rd reason: the echo chamber idea. I enjoyed “Apprentice” but it didn’t challenge me - I agreed with pretty much all of it & would probably enjoy Steve Chalke’s company if I met him socially. Surely it would be better for me to read a book with which I disagreed - but that would wear me out & I wouldn’t enjoy it.
The writing sounds like sermons. It’s a very dense cake of anecdotes, quotes, Bible passages and modern parables. It’s not my favourite style, I find it a bit overwhelming.
It’s great that Steve Chalke was the narrator as well as the author.
Finally, one observation: if you have the option you probably should read “Apprentice” in a visual form, not audio. Its structure is important: each chapter handles a separate topic of discipleship; and is divided into short parts which are perhaps designed to be ‘quick reads’. Listening on audible, I got lost in the prose, which was highly listenable, but in the end confused me about where it was going. So, if you *are* listening rather than reading, make sure you bear the Contents page in mind, and keep track of which chapter you’re in.
