I loved this book - it was a big ouch type book to keep in check who you believe you are!

Must read!

Fake or Follower by Andi Andrew is an honest, heartfelt cry to the masses. Are you going through the motions or are you living out your life in such a way that it points everyone you meet to Jesus?

Andi writes with a passion that practically jumps off the pages. She is earnest in her desire for Christians to "Follow Jesus, refusing to settle for a shallow or fake faith with every breath you take, as they are the very breath of God given to you as a gift."

She touches on many truths and reasons why Christians today feel like they are just going through the motions. A lot of it has to do with social media, and I think she has touched on something with her exploration of it. The body of Christ has become self-obsessed, and it's time for us to get back to our first love (Revelation 2:4).

At the end of each chapter, Andi has some questions that take you a little further, examining your heart to see where you are in your walk with the Lord.

The only problem I had with this well-written book is the author's use of the heretical The Passion Translation. For someone who can discern how much the body of Christ has fallen away from their first love, she is woefully naive when it comes to using this Bible as her final authority.

If you need the inspiration to follow Jesus again, read this book, but read it with a King James Version close at hand.
