Synopsis

Follow Me pushes back against what David Platt sees as a shallow, decision-based model of faith — pray a prayer, consider yourself saved — arguing instead that Jesus's actual invitation in the Gospels was a call to die to self and follow him completely, with no guarantee of comfort or safety. Platt works through the cost Jesus describes in his own teaching, contrasting it with how casually "following Jesus" is often presented today.

Written as a follow-up to his bestselling Radical, the book pushes readers to treat discipleship as an ongoing, all-consuming commitment rather than a single moment of decision.
