Book Review-not a fan.

not a fan.
BECOMING A COMPLETELY COMMITTED FOLLOWER OF JESUS
Kyle Idleman



Did you know there is a difference in being a fan of Christ and a follower of Him? There is a huge difference and you will find out what the differences are if you read this book. 

Some may think they are followers, but they are only fans. Here is a quote from page 31 to give you an idea what this book is all about. 

"Most of us don't mind Jesus making some minor change in our lives, but Jesus wants to turn our lives upside down. Fans don't mind him doing a little touch-up, but Jesus wants complete renovation. Fans come to Jesus thinking tune-up, but Jesus is thinking overhaul. Fans think a little makeup is fine, but Jesus is thinking makeover. Fans think a little decorating is required, but Jesus wants a complete remodel. Fans want Jesus to inspire them, but Jesus wants to interfere with their lives."

Max Lucado, pastor of Oak Hills Church and bestselling author says, "Kyle Idleman knows where we live and where we could live with God's help. His words are, at once, profound and practical. He is committed to helping us move in the right direction. If you need a helping hand in your journey, he'll point you to the right Person." 

This book is put out by Zondervan, ISBN #978-0-310-33193-3 if you want to look it up on the internet or in your local Christian book section. 

Great book!
