Episode 1: "I Have Decided to Follow Jesus"

Ever wondered what it means to truly be a follower of Jesus? In this episode, we discuss what it means to be a follower and not just a fan. We take a closer look at the well-known hymn, I Have Decided to Follow Jesus, and use it, along with some scriptures, to gain a better understanding of what a Jesus-follower looks like.
