Synopsis

2014 “Christian Retailing’s Best” award finalist!
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.

Goodreads review by John on November 30, 2014

For me, Platt is on the attack too much. He's attacking surface faith, which needs to be exposed for what it is. He derides popular sayings like "personal Savior", giving it an overtone I've never really heard. Jesus IS our personal Savior, no matter how Platt spins it. In doing that so much and so o......more

Goodreads review by Jeff on February 11, 2013

This book was one that I really looked forward to read, and it did not disappoint. Found it more challenging than Radical!! Dr. Platt lays it out for each and every believer our call to make disciples and what a true disciple of Christ looks like. If you attend church and are not involved in sharing......more

Goodreads review by Tim on March 10, 2013

If you consider yourself a Christian.. this is a must read book. If you don't like change... then this book is not for you. You will be challenged to follow Christ, not just be a "Christian". There is a difference.......more
