"Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness,

but will have the light of life" (John 8:12)

For me, the simple question "Do you know Jesus?", along with a helpful booklet, led to seeing that Jesus is real and my life-changing decision to follow him. This book aims to help other seekers to "come and see" the real Jesus and respond to his call, "follow me." But primarily, it aims to encourage ordinary Christians (like myself) to dig deeper into the teachings of Jesus and do what they can to make disciples of others.

To that end, this book explains basic truths and also explores their profound implications. Three major themes that I explore are what it means to live 'in Christ,' how God's sovereign plan links up with the free-will responses he requires of us; and how all of Christ's commands link up with growing in love - including for Christians from different backgrounds with conflicting views on hot-potato issues! Jesus wants to help us all to see him more clearly and follow him wholeheartedly, come what may.

It was quiet, yet dramatic - the most famous, history-changing person who ever lived, gently made me aware that he is real and that I can carry on living my way, or put my life in his hands. I chose his path. But this book isn't my biography (that is condensed on the final page!). It's about digging deeper into life-changing truths that lead to eternal life. The phrase 'quiet revival' describes a global awakening among Gen Z young people, and both young and older people are learning about following Jesus, in quiet or dramatic ways, amidst the turmoil of this troubled world.
