Real: Becoming a 24/7 Follower of Jesus

by Jamie Snyder, Kyle Idleman (Foreword by)

Overview

"Would people know I'm a Christian if they didn't see me at church?"

This gut-check question was just what Jamie Snyder needed. Like many of us, he sensed his faith had become mechanical rather than meaningful, scheduled rather than passionate. Emboldened, Snyder set out to recapture the sold-out lifestyle of early followers of Jesus.

Here he shares how to live the life Jesus desires of us, a life defined by

Unbridled generosity
Daring courage
Rebellious joy
Risky faith
Relentless hope
Scandalous grace
Mad love

Be challenged. Be encouraged. Be a 24/7 follower of Jesus.

"This book will inspire you to take risks and step outside your comfort zone."
—Kyle Idleman, author of Not a Fan
