What does it mean to follow Jesus?
When Jesus was on earth, He gathered disciples using a simple invitation, “Follow me.” After a while a small group of men and women did just that. They followed Jesus. They watch Him work miracles. They listened to His teaching. They walked with Him and eat with Him. And at the end, they saw Him die and then rise from the grave. He ascended into heaven. He was no longer physically with them, but the following would not stop.
Very simply, Christians are called to follow Jesus. A Christian’s life is to be radically oriented around Jesus. But, following Jesus is never a straight line. Instead, it is full of ups and downs. Join us this fall as we look at Peter’s life and what it means to follow Jesus through the ups and downs of life.
