Not a Fan: Teen Edition: What does it really mean to follow Jesus?

If someone asked, 'Are you a fan of Jesus?', how would you answer? You attend every movie featuring a certain actor, you know the stats of your sports hero, and can recite each lyric from your favorite band. In short, you're a huge fan. But are you treating Jesus the same as the other people you admire? The truth is, Jesus wants more than the church attendance, occasional prayer, and the ability to recite Scripture---the fan response. He's looking for people who are actually willing to sacrifice in order to follow him. In this teen edition of Not a Fan, Kyle Idleman uses humor, personal stories, and biblical truth as he challenges you to look at what it means to call yourself a Christian, and what it means to follow the radical call Jesus presents. So will you be a fan, or a follower?

Kingdom Journeys: Rediscovering the Lost Spiritual Discipline

Do you feel like you've been missing out on the abundant life? Most people do.

If you take a look at the life of Jesus, you see that he called his disciples to follow him - on a physical journey, not just a spiritual one.

Hundreds of books talk about our faith walk as a journey. But few delve into the subject of how a physical journey can reinvent and revitalize our spiritual journey with God.

Kingdom Journeys is about the journeys we all take, presented in a series of "initiation steps" by disciples who are taking serious the call to leave everything and simply "go."

This book is an exploration of an ancient spiritual discipline we must recover -- if we're going to truly follow Jesus.
