Has the Christian faith has lost its way because it has cut itself loose from its Hebrew roots? Faith, love, witness and discipleship – the basic tenets of our faith – come from a world very foreign to the stoic philosophy developed through the early centuries of Christendom to the Church today. Christianity is actually a desert faith, forged through the fires of experience, relationship and a naturally supernatural walk with the Creator of all things. Just as Jesus walked close to his original disciples and believed that they could be like him, we too are called to walk close to our God and like them to ‘turn our world upside down’. Joseph Gisbey’s Follow steps back in time to the authentic world of Jesus, and demonstrates with a passion that the same adventures we read about in the pages of the book of Acts can be written on the pages of our 21st-Century lives.
