If you are not a Christian or don’t have a personal relationship with God, then you should listen to what God is saying to you here – but do pray before you listen. Jesus invited ordinary people to follow him and learn what it is to have that close relationship, and what it means to know Jesus personally. And he gives us some good examples for us to help overcome negative doubts that distract us from the truth. It is also important to know the full implications of becoming a follower of Jesus – the challenges, advantages and blessings that are then freely available. The video shows what it is like to be a Christian in today’s world order. God is not a crutch to hang on to, but a saviour to lead you forward to where is best for you personally.

Jim Elliott once said “He is no fool who gives what he cannot keep to gain what he cannot lose“. Bob explains what he means by this.
