At Alive 2013 I spoke at one of the evening celebrations asking the question Do we follow Jesus really? I was exploring how taking the words of Jesus “Come follow me” seriously creates a very different agenda for the church than what we are familiar with. In this serialisation of that talk I have added some questions that can be used by individuals or groups to think a little more about what following Jesus really means. Find more in the series here.

Part 2: People Not Programmes

To think further ….

• Consider how you became a Christian. Who were the significant people who pointed you to Christ?
• Think through the statement ‘Jesus developed relationships not programmes.’ Is this true in your life? What about in your church?
• Who are the people that God has placed in your life that he asks you to invest in?
