I Am a Follower: The Way, Truth, and Life of Following Jesus

I Am a Follower: The Way, Truth, and Life of Following Jesus

â€œFOLLOW ME.â€

These two words echo the heart-defining call of our Lord Jesus Christ toÂ his disciples.Â

Sadly, this life-changing invitation has lost much of its original meaning.Â Immersed in a society that worships success, we have succumbed to a trendy
fixation with leadership. In I Am a Follower, author Leonard Sweet explainsÂ how Christians in a twenty-first-century corporate-obsessed culture haveÂ shifted away from a Jesus art of following toward a popularized form of leading.

Through a colorful mÃ©lange of practical applications, imaginative metaphors,Â and probing biblical exposition based in gospel truth, Sweet reveals that theÂ summons of Jesus and the message of the New Testament point clearly to anÂ emphasis not on imitation but on incarnation, not on leading but on following.

Join Sweet on an exciting and intentional journey from leadership cult toÂ followership culture. Discover for yourself the way, the truth, and the abundant
life of following Jesus Christ and what it truly means to â€œFollow Meâ€!

â€œAt times I felt like I was reading Jeremiah, challenging the shepherdsÂ of Israel. This is a much needed and long overdue book.â€
â€•BOB ROBERTS, senior pastor, Northwood Church

â€œIf there was ever a leader who could convince me that itâ€™s really never been aboutÂ leading, that would have to be Len Sweet. May we all, like Len, become followers.â€
