About this listen

John Mark Comer, the New York Times bestselling author of The Ruthless Elimination of Hurry and Live No Lies, shows readers what is holding them back from authentically following Jesus - and reveals the countercultural practices to connect us with a vibrant lifelong faith.

"One of the most important books I have read in a decade... If we would all follow in this way, our lives would change and the world would change." Jennie Allen, author of Get Out of Your Head and Find Your People

We all have experienced unwanted parts of our spiritual journey: distance from God, gaps in our character, the fear that our lives will be trivial and empty... Jesus is calling us into more. Calling us to be shaped in his likeness. To experience his abundance of life.

But how, practically, can we do that? By becoming his apprentice. By practicing the Way.

Outlining the timeless process of being with Jesus, becoming like him, and living as he did, bestselling author and pastoral voice John Mark Comer delineates God's vision for the journey of our soul.

In this powerful and practical work, he defines his core philosophy of spiritual formation to help us form a "rule of life."

Along the way, readers benefit from his rich cultural insight, deep biblical teaching, and honest and hopeful view of the potential of each human soul.

You feel like there's more to life than this? You're right. Now come discover just how much life awaits you.

Following Jesus....

I love the gentle way John Mark Comer invites us to follow Jesus by Practicing the Way of Jesus....just putting one foot after the other and in getting up again when we fall down.

Gods perfect timing…

I know where my heart has been yearning to get to but the perfectionist in me always got frustrated with being inconsistent and too easily distracted… here’s to small and intentional steps 🙏🏻

Challenging and encouraging

Confronted by my shortcomings and encouraged by the reassurance that God’s not done with me yet, this book is almost ‘Jesus for dummies’ in the best possible way. I am challenged and encouraged to pursue apprenticeship and relationship and love that this message contradicts what everyone seems to think about ‘religion’ (my least favourite word) and switches the narrative so well.

great content

Mark has done very thorough research & gives practical steps for us to become more like Jesus & avoid the influence of the culture we live in. He critiques some of the ways the broader church is being influenced by the values of the world & not Christ.

Would recommend!

As it was said, “Religion is for those who are scared to go to hell, spirituality is for those who have gone through hell.”

Being an apprentice

Comer simply sets out what it means to be an apprentice of Jesus in a way that is invitational, practical, and accessible.
