In 2011, Pastor Kyle Idleman published a book that dealt with the concept of being a devoted follower of Christ or just a fair weather fan of Jesus.  The guys are up for the challenge, but are you ready to listen?  In this episode they talk about an issue that most churches don’t have the guts to discuss.  Are you just a fan or are you truly seeking the will of God and following him?  If we take the scriptures as they are (and we do) then it should go without saying that we should be following the will of Jesus when he said in Luke 9:23. 

“If anyone wants to come with me, he must deny himself, take up his cross daily, and follow me.”
