    FOLLOW ME – The Social Networking of Jesus

    Luke 5:

    10 His partners, James and John, the sons of Zebedee, were also amazed.

    Jesus replied to Simon, “Don’t be afraid! From now on you’ll be fishing for people!” 11 And as soon as they landed, they left everything and followed Jesus.

    27 Later, as Jesus left the town, he saw a tax collector named Levi sitting at his tax collector’s booth.“Follow me and be my disciple,” Jesus said to him. 28 So Levi got up, left everything, and followed him.

    “Jesus followed no man.  Yet in just three years our Lord connected to thousands and convinced many followers.

    I’ve been giving much thought and listening to considerable advice recently about how to reach readers who also follow Christ.  This is crucial for Christian authors.

    IF we seek followers of Christ to read our book (or our blog), where will our journey take us in three years?

    (Jesus must have had a plan and strategy for Jews and gentiles to receive the gospel of the Cross before the sacrifice of the Cross.)

    How did He do it?  What was His strategy?

    Although Jesus followed only God, our Lord pursued faithfully those who sought to follow him.  Matthew, Zacchaeus, Mary Magdalene, a Samaritan woman at the well and Nicodemus are just a few examples.

    Jesus was connected to a Mentor Circle.  (You know the other Two.)

    His Followers, Apostles, Paul, Timothy and others all built their churches in the same way – Mentors from the One original AND Followers of each new closely connected group of believers.

    His followers he then added and pursued any who followed with love for their souls.

    Therefore my intent is to follow some of your wise counsel from our inner circle of Christian authors. Yet my advice to us:

    “Walk among the circles of our READERS.  Show them Christ.  See who will follow.

    Do you have any specific directions for us?

    Foundation of Truth

    “Trust requires a foundation of Truth seasoned by integrity. Build your Heavenly home with Christ Jesus.

    John 14: excerpt

    “Don’t let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God, and trust also in me. 2 There is more than enough room in my Father’s home. … 3 When everything is ready, I will come and get you, so that you will always be with me where I am. 4 And you know the way to where I am going.”

    5 “No, we don’t know, Lord,” Thomas said. “We have no idea where you are going, so how can we know the way?”

    6 Jesus told him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one can come to the Father except through me.

    The Church’s one foundation
    Is Jesus Christ her Lord,
    She is His new creation

    10 Disciplines of a Godly Man

    Are you a Godly man? (Or Godly woman, is your discipline and witness strong enough to SHARE and encourage your husband or the men in your life: sons, friends, co-workers, brothers saved and unsaved?) This book will help.

    Let’s start with this: 1 Timothy 4:  Instead, train yourself to be godly. 8 “Physical training is good, but training for godliness is much better, promising benefits in this life and in the life to come.”

    10 Disciplines of a Godly Man – (link has a brief audio file where you can listen to a sample from the book)

    Our Men’s Bible study is taking a look at this tool for our faith.  I can recommend it to you not only because we are examining the principles & scriptures, but also knowing the author, Kent Hughes, is one of the godly leading men  of my daughter’s church, College Church in Wheaton IL.

    READ: your Bible. DAILY.
