Easy reading
We cannot wait to implement the content of Following Jesus in our discipleship course at New Life. This book is short so it's easy to read, but it is packed with content that will help any new believer to grow in their walk.
Bought this for a junior high small group they loved it.
Simply put. Excellent read, especially for those seeking to understand and know Christ.
I am teaching from Following Jesus. The guide makes it a breeze for any level teacher to present, yet also allows flexibility for discussion and adaptation as the Spirit leads. Students receive the 8 chapter lessons in simple, easy to read and understand format. That is essential, to have materials that do not overwhelm newbies. Students receive thorough instruction that equips them with knowledge and understanding how to walk with Jesus.
I bought this book for youth small groups along with the free online video series, and it really made a difference in our youth ministry. It's like the Purple Book from Zondervan, but more condensed, easy to read, and perfect for newer or younger believers. It lays down foundational truths and could be used in various denominations. Samuel and his team have done a great job putting this book together, and I highly recommend it 👍
A must read for beginners, and seasoned Christians
I've been striving to build a better relationship with God but wasn't sure how to. The Following Jesus book helped me become more intentional when it came to having a more personal relationship with God. I would read it over and over because I know each time I'd learn something new that I'd missed the first time. Definitely a must read!
Finally a book out there that helps build our Christian faith on a solid, biblical foundation! Simple to follow and easy to read. Great for bible study or discipleship groups. It covers the essentials and answers alot of questions about the Christian faith. Great for new followers of Jesus and for those who want to be better equipped to share the important elements of the Christian faith to anyone who asks!
This book by Samuel Deuth is a must have for all Christians. It's a step by step guide to what's next after asking Jesus into your life and a reminder of what we are called to do. It's practical and straight to the point. It's great for small group studies. I will keep several copies on hand to give away.
Pastor Samuel Deuth does a SPECTACULAR job at making the Gospel more practical, sensible and understandable than ever before. I encourage new believers especially, to make this your #2 after the bible, your beginners manual to FOLLOWING CHIRST.
