In this discipleship classic, Jerry Sittser uses memorable stories to illustrate how a simple effort to understand discipleship as an adventure can create a paradigm shift in your understanding of the Christian life.
This is Jerry's first book and even after all these years, it's still a masterpiece on the basics of walking with Jesus. Jerry's descriptive introductions to each chapter via his recollections of his summer with the Sage create an anticipation for making new discoveries about God's perspective on our relationship with him.
Down to earth; simple, but deep.
