Follow Me

Date: May. 1, 2015

Author: Michael Mark

As Jesus went on from there, he saw a man named Matthew sitting at the tax collector’s booth. “Follow me,” he told him, and Matthew got up and followed him.
-Matt 9:9

If you have ever been on a tour, you follow a tour guide who will lead you through the tour and explain the things you see.  As a child, your father or mother will tell you to follow them, otherwise you may get lost.  We follow those we trust to lead us along the way.  What does it mean when Jesus calls you to follow him?  What would you say, or what would you do if God calls to you and says, “Follow me.”  Where does he want to lead you?  Perhaps God, the Creator of the universe, the author of life, wants to lead you to life, to heaven, to real, lasting and eternal life.

This summer, come join us in Springfield, IL to explore more about what it means to follow Jesus.  We will be joining with other UBF ministries from all over the region for the 2015 Midwest Summer Bible Conference, July 16-19.

There will be lectures from the books of Matthew, Mark, Luke and John, morning devotional sessions and Bible study breakout groups.  Hear about God’s work on college campuses during Campus Night on Friday, and learn about his work around the world on World Mission Night on Saturday.  We will also be having a special presentation by pastor and author Stephen Lutz, and a special concert by Vertical Church Band.  We hope you can join us!
