Simply Following Jesus: Practices for Living Out an Uncomplicated Faith

The way of Jesus is simple enough for a child to understand yet deep enough to learn for a lifetime. Life is complicated. Faith isn't. Or it shouldn't be. But religious leaders, in the past and today, have overcomplicated and obscured what Jesus and the Bible made plain and simple. Jesus taught one overarching principle backed by practical applications for everyday life. Whether you are new to the faith or are hoping to refresh a faith grown stale, Simply Following Jesus is your guide to a straightforward, action-oriented experience of Christianity. Pastor Robert Watson shows you how to see your faith in terms of transformation, service, generosity, focus, submission, and more, freeing you to love God and your neighbor the way Jesus taught. "If you are looking for a book to put in the hands of every new believer at your church, look no further! Simply Following Jesus provides readers an easy-to-understand look at some of the most important aspects of the Christian faith."-- Kurt Johnston , pastor of campus development, Saddleback Church "If you deeply desire to grow closer to God, Simply Following Jesus offers clear guidance for where to start--or where to begin again if you've gone astray--to take your next step of faith by simply following Jesus."-- Megan Fate Marshman , pastor and author of Relaxed and Meant for Good
