I just finished reading this book last night. It was a true eye opener. I had walked away from God and his teachings after my husband and then my father passed away and just returned to Him after three years of what I choose to call bad behavior. I picked this book up and couldn't put it down. I realized that I had been just a Fan and not a follower. After reading this book I now understand what it is to be a follower and not a Fan. I am to proud to say that I am a Follower. My name is Anna Capelle.

There’s very little digging into the scripture and the theme is just repeated each chapter. It could’ve been two chapters. There’s also a lot of assumption about what happened in scripture (the story about why the woman cried was awful). I can’t recommend it. I don’t don’t disagree with the main theme but I just can’t get past the very self-conscious hipness and dramatization.

I've been living my whole life knowing who He is. Trusting. Believing. When someone near would confront a little about "do I know Him or do I just know about Him" I thought I was in the know Him camp. This is such a gentle nudge toward "I bet you really only know about Him" that I can take it in without feeling beat up about it. Just like Jesus, this draws you to Him instead of pushes you at Him (or burn in hell sinner!). I will finish this one page at a time and let all the words sink in.

Challenging you to look honestly at your relationship with Jesus Christ, and encouraging you to move up to living Luke 9:23.
