Men, how do you go from a decision for Jesus to a life as a sold-out, on-fire follower?

In this week’s expert interview, Jim Ramos is joined by Alex and Stephen Kendrick (better known as ‘The Kendrick Brothers’), the filmmakers behind films like 'Courageous,' 'War Room,' ‘Facing the Giants,' and 'The Forge.’ They discuss their new book, Devoted to Jesus: From First Steps to Fully Surrendered and what it takes for a Christian man to become a true disciple of Jesus.
