Men's Studies:

New Men's Study-Not A Fan

Twenty times in the New Testament, Jesus issued a compelling and challenging invitation to follow Him. He's not interested in mere fans. He doesn't want enthusiastic admirers. He wants Completely Committed Followers. Based on the engaging approach of Kyle Idleman, this one-of-a-kind small group study—Not a Fan—examines what it means to deny oneself and truly follow Jesus. The cost for the workbook for this six-week study is $8. For more information contact Keith Wilson, 706.549.2199,
