Follow Me: A Call to Die. A Call to Live.

<b>2014 “Christian Retailing’s Best” award winner!</b><br />What did Jesus really mean when he said, “Follow Me”? <br /><br /> <br /><br />In this new book, David Platt, author of the <i>New York Times</i> bestselling book, <i>Radical: Taking Back Your Faith from the American Dream</i>, contends that multitudes of people around the world culturally think they are Christians yet biblically are not followers of Christ. <br /><br /> <br /><br />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. <br /><br /> <br /><br />Revealing a biblical picture of what it means to truly be a Christian, <i>Follow Me</i> 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. <br /><br /> <br /><br />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.
