Following Jesus

Not a Fan

Did you know that when you decided to follow Jesus, you also signed up for pain, suffering and persecution?So brace yourselves my friends! Following Jesus requires total submission, dying to self, and taking up your cross. In Mark 8:34-38, Jesus invites us to follow him, but forewarns us of what it may cost us

I absolutely love the explanatory notes on my NLT Life App Bible, so yes, i will be sharing the explanation of This scripture.

Are you a fan of Jesus or a follower of Jesus? Fans love the idea of being Christians, but they are not willing to feel any discomfort for the sake of Jesus. Followers of Jesus, on the other hand, know they'll suffer and count it all joy when they do. My name is Akunna Uduko, and I am not a fan!


PS: I am clearly reading Not a Fan by Kyle Idleman. Great book! Thanks Oddie! :)
