Are you a follower of Jesus? Don't answer too quickly. In fact, you may want to read this book before you answer at all. Consider it a 'Define the Relationship' conversation to determine exactly where you stand. You may indeed be a passionate, fully devoted follower of Jesus. Or, you may be just a fan who admires Jesus but isn't ready to let him cramp your style. Then again, maybe you're not into Jesus, period.In any case, don't take the question---Are you a follower of Jesus?---lightly.Some people don't know what they've said yes to and other people don't realize what they've said no to, says Pastor Kyle Idleman. But Jesus is ready to clearly define the relationship he wants with his followers.Not a Fan calls you to consider the demands and rewards of being a true disciple. With frankness sprinkled with humor, Idleman invites you to live the way Jesus lived, love the way he loved, pray the way he prayed, and never give up living for the One who gave his all for you.

A good review of this book http://thegospelcoalition.org/book-re...There are some good points and also some problems with this book. The author basically teaches the "surrendered life" which is nothing new. DA Carson's associate Andy Naselli wrote his doctoral dissertation about this movement called "Keswick" or "Higher life" sanctification and you can read a presentation of it here: http://andynaselli.com/keswick-theology I was completely unaware of this model of sanctification until my early

This book really challenged me to examine the commitment level of my relationship with Jesus. It was a thorough scriptural examination that also included great testimonials that demonstrated the profound difference between being a fan and being a follower. I found myself alternating between discomfort and joy as I looked closely at my heart and my life to determine whether I was truly a follower of Jesus. I welcomed the examination and the call to reflection. It served as a wonderful call to

Are you a follower of Jesus, or just a fan? How you live your life tells the tale. This book challenges the read to closely examine their lives to see if we are all in and putting God above all else, unreservedly. This is one I will add to my To be Read Annually list.

Our pastor is using this book as the basis for our current sermon series. A challenging book written in contemporary language. Incredibly relevant. The basis of a book is challenging people to be a follower of Christ who is totally sold out to loving others rather than a fan who shows up on Sundays and lacks committment the other six days a week. I would definitely recommend. It's a quick and easy read to follow, but I found myself writing a lot of notes in my Bible margins as it went along. I'd

I don't usually read many non-fiction books just because I get bored of them really easily and I never seem to learn anything. Every now and then I'll come across a non-fiction book that is just so amazing I want to buy it for everyone and force them to read it(which I absolutely would do if I could). Kyle Idleman begins the book with a question. Are you a fan or a follower of Jesus Christ. Most Christians would answer that question without a second thought but as Idleman gets more in depth I

This book made me sick. I am not a fan and I don't claim to be a follower. I am a fan of books like this because I just don't like the whole "grace only" belief and "repeat after me and you get eternal life" movement. I really thought I would like this book and it would get me all psyched up about becoming a "real christian" but it made me sick from the beginning. I thought a fan was going to be described as a one of those people that live however they want but if you ask them, they claim they
