Synopsis

The Life of a Jesus Follower Bible Study Book includes printed content for eight small group sessions, personal study between meetings, applicable Scripture, "How to Use This Study," tips for leading a group, and a leader guide.

Does Christianity ever seem like a burden to you? Why is something that came so naturally to Jesus so difficult for us? We have complicated and over-programmed the simple way that Jesus showed us to love God and others.

Jesus' life on earth revolved around three relationships. First, He walked in an intimate love relationship with the Father. Second, He lived His life in fellowship with His disciples--doing life with others was the outflow of His relationship with the Father. And third, He lived His life engaging and cultivating relationships with people who didn't know God at all.

These relationships define the essence of the life of a Jesus follower. And when we follow Jesus' model of relationship, we will sink into the freedom He offers. We will stop working so hard, bound by the exhausting and burdensome rules of religion. Instead, we will allow His life to take over our own.
