Come and Follow Softcover Book (item not available for free shipping)

You are about to read the stories of people who met Jesus face-to-face. Some were willing to leave everything to follow him; others were willing to do anything to put him on a cross. Like an IMAX experience, Mark’s Gospel is vivid and dramatic. It reads more like a screenplay than a biography. Compelling narratives, miraculous signs, compassionate deeds, striking confrontations and provocative teachings interconnect and move at a rapid pace toward a stark climax and an inspiring conclusion. Jesus steps onto Mark’s stage with amazing authority and an anointed mission. He is the Christ, the Son of God. And he comes with a transformational message: “The time has come. The kingdom of God is near. Repent and believe the good news.” So many choices await us as we step into our own “come and follow” adventure. • What nets will we leave behind? • How will we come to know him and be known by him? • What will it mean for us to genuinely trust him? • How will he teach us to fish in our own sea of relationships? His invitation stands. Come. Follow. Fish.
