52 Follow

"Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.”
"Love your neighbor as yourself."
"Judge not, that you be not judged."

Jesus' words have had a 2,000 year echo that have shaped history.

52 Follow introduces each one of his direct commands in the hope that you don't just grow in your understanding of Jesus' teaching, but meet Jesus himself.

As your understanding of who Jesus is grows, you'll discover more about who he says you are. The beautiful outcome of this self-discovery is that it will become clear that Jesus is calling you to, "Come, follow me."

His invitation is not to an upgraded, religious life, but to an entirely new life and profoundly different way of living.

Engage with the teachings. Meet Jesus. Discover and deepen the life you're designed for.

My wife, Martine and I live in a regional town on Australia's Sunshine Coast. We're aiming to enjoy following Jesus until our last breath. We have grown a large family who enjoy the beach and family meals. We joined, and I now lead, a church that casually meets in a park by a beautiful beach. Each week we connect, share stories and hear a short message focused on loving obedience to Jesus. These messages have formed the basis of this book. You are welcome and encouraged to use Jesus' teachings in your own church too.
