"Know About Me" and "Follow Me" Are Not the Same Thing

In the suburbs, we greatly value education, knowledge--and that's a good thing. However, it is very easy for folks in a religious context like ours to assume that knowledge about theology, doctrine, the Bible or Jesus makes us Christians. The truth is that when Jesus was here in the flesh, his call was not "Learn stuff about me," but "Follow me." The difference in these two is the difference between life and death, the gospel and everything else. That's what we'll be considering this Sunday.  Hope to see you here!
