WEDNESDAY NIGHT CLASS
FOLLOW ME: WHAT IT MEANS TO BE A DISCIPLE OF JESUS
Jesus recruited his disciples with a simple, yet challenging invitation, “Follow Me.” It’s a bold ask that occurs about 20 times in the gospels. Soren Kierkegaard made an insightful observation about the difference between a Jesus follower and a
Jesus admirer. He made the argument that a follower strives to become like their leader. Followers risk everything for the one they serve. On the other hand, an admirer keeps himself personally detached. Admirers are willing to serve Jesus as long as a proper caution is exercised. But Jesus did not call admirers; he called
disciples. So what does it mean to be a Christ follower in 2025?
Join us beginning this Wednesday
to see how you will respond to the invitation to follow Jesus.
