This is FaithStation! (Sunday, February 11)

This past Sunday we started our journey with The 24/7 Experience. During this series we will be looking more closely at how to follow Jesus every day. Sunday night's first session introduced us to seven students who we will be observing as they travel the country to meet with some radical Jesus-followers.

We started in New York City and we heard the words of Don Everts, author of the book Jesus with Dirty Feet. In his book, he writes that becoming a follower of Jesus "is never more than Jesus' call, 'Follow Me,' and a response: dropping of familiar nets." What are some "familiar nets" that you are holding on to that you know Jesus is asking you to drop in order to follow him?
Comment on this idea of dropping familiar nets by February 25 for a chance to win a copy of the book, Jesus With Dirty Feet!

Leaving your comfortable excuses for why you cant do something and following him without regard to what others think.

Leaving the time-consuming video games, ipods, TVs, and computers behind and following Jesus with only him in mind.
