I am a Follower by Leonard Sweet

Hello there! I have just received a new book from Booksneeze, “I am a Follower” by Leonard Sweet, and I LOVED it! But, before I get started, I need to let you all know that I did get this book for free from the booksneeze blogging program offered through the Thomas Nelson Publishing Company. I got it in exchange for an honest review, and anything I say is completely my own opinion. Now, on with the review! Following, in today’s society, is not the norm. At all, whatsoever. We are the masters of our own path, the dictators of our own lives, and the rulers of our situations. So when this Jesus guy comes along and says, “Forget about you. Live for Me,” it gets sort of hectic. It turns our little, perfectly placed lives upside down and changes every aspect of our day-to-day schedule. Shouldn’t that be the case? And used to be, that was exactly what happened. But as AD 30 turned into AD 2011, our collective attitude towards Jesus has become less and less about Him and more and more about us. This book was written so that maybe some people would change that. In a time where everyone is wanting more, books such as “Radical,” “Not a Fan”, and “Crazy Love” rise to the top. I believe that we should add “I am a Follower” to this list. Five out of five stars!
