What did Jesus really mean when he said, "Follow Me"?
In this new book, David Platt, author of the New York Times
bestselling book, Radical: Taking Back Your Faith from the American
Dream, contends that multitudes of people around the world culturally
think they are Christians yet biblically are not followers of Christ.
Scores of men, women, and children have been told that becoming a
follower of Jesus simply involves believing certain truths or saying
certain words. As a result, churches today are filled with people who
believe they are Christians . . . but aren't. We want to be disciples as
long as doing so does not intrude on our lifestyles, our preferences,
our comforts, and even our religion.
Revealing a biblical picture of what it means to truly be a Christian,
Follow Me explores the gravity of what we must forsake in this world,
as well as the indescribable joy and deep satisfaction to be found when
we live for Christ.
The call to follow Jesus is not simply an invitation to pray a prayer;
it's a summons to lose your life--and to find new life in him. This book
will show you what such life actually looks like.
