Follow Me Experience the Loving Leadership of Jesus

I have been a pastor for 11 years and I have yet to run across a book that better explains the gospel than Follow Me. In a day when too many Americans "pray the prayer" and put their life in cruise control, Hettinga offers in a very readable, profound, yet clear-cut manner what being a Christ-follower truly means. His chapters are short, to-the-point and well illustrated. He uses a lot of little pictures and charts to drive home his points. I used this book in my men's small group this past year (2004) and it revolutionized several of the guys in terms of life and purpose. All of the guys confessed to not being able to put it down, including the self-described "non-readers". Our group is a mix between seasoned Christians, brand-new believers and one seeker and they all found this to be a book that was must-reading!!

What a fantastic insight to the Christian path! It is such an incredible blessing to have the most powerful and important relationship of our life explained in a "simpler" point of view. This book has made a dramatic impact on my personal relationship with Jesus Christ.

Jan Hettinga gave me a copy of this book in 1996 but I didn't read it until 2000. Since then I have not stopped recommending it to my Christian friends. Its message of genuine commitment of servant to Master is desperately needed in our world today. I have purchased over 30 copies to give or sell to people whom I have urged to read it. It is a life-changing book for anyone who wants to get serious about living for Christ.

Be sure to pick up a pencil or pen along with this book. Read slowly. Study. Underline. The importance of what is being said in "Follow Me" cannot be overstated. I am an avid reader and next to the Bible, I have returned to this book more than any other, and I continue to find new truths to challenge me. How I wish every church in America would teach the concepts in Jan Hettinga's book. Too much of the body of Christ is missing the essence of the gospel, with tragic consequences. In this book is the secret to the real life-changing, transforming message of Jesus. Is your walk with Christ a disappointment? Do you struggle to find the peace, power and joy you thought would be part of the Christian life? This book is especially for you!

"Follow me", is not just a book, it is an experience with Jesus. This book will change your life and challenge your walk in the Kingdom of God.
