Jesus said, "Follow me." So where did everyone go? The call to follow is clear. The path, however, particularly in the Western world, is not often traveled. While the call to discipleship is far from easy, it's not complex. Despite its clarity, both survey results and observation show that we are simply not becoming more like Jesus. What's your plan to follow Jesus? Programmed approaches to discipleship of various kinds tend to fall short. A certain program might work well for some, but that same program seems to be nearly impossible for others. In Follow Me, Brian Kannel challenges you to move beyond the programs. Rather than detailing a specific structure, he outlines seven broad values, and those values form a constantly moving process of growth in faith. Follow Me tells the story of one local church seeking to get serious about discipleship, and calls each of us to do the same thing. Will you follow Him? Brian Kannel is the Lead Pastor of York Alliance Church, a growing cell church in south central Pennsylvania. He is also the author of numerous study guides, including Discipleship According to Jesus and Up in Smoke: A Study of Ecclesiastes. Brian and his wife Amanda live in York, PA with their four children.
