Follower: How Getting Close to Jesus Brings You to Yourself - Paperback

by Jennifer A. G. Layte (Author)

What if Simon Peter wasn't quite who you thought? What if he wasn't even who he thought? After meeting a traveling rabbi named Jesus who nicknamed him at first sight, Simon begins to be transformed into Peter. As you witness Peter's transformation into himself through the influence of Jesus, you can take your own steps toward following Jesus more closely through suggested spiritual practices. By the end of this book, may you too know Jesus-and yourself-better than ever. May you step into the freedom of becoming more fully the person you truly are.
