Congregational Guide
Following Jesus is something all of us are called to do every day of our lives. Following Jesus is an invitation to discipleship, an ongoing practice that we accept again and again. This unit studies mostly New Testament passages from the Bible, asking what it means when we choose to follow Jesus with every decision we make. Learn how following Jesus translates to loving God and neighbor and bearing witness to God’s love and justice in our everyday world. Let this practice become the lens through which you see the world as you explore this unit, Follow Jesus.

The Congregational Guide provides materials for the pastor, educator, and church leaders to connect the practice with congregational worship and life.

Included in this guide:

  • Foundational Essay—written by a biblical scholar, these essays explore what each practice means and where it is found in the Bible
  • Worship Helps—ways of incorporating this practice in worship through liturgy, song, and other suggestions
  • Café Discussion Guide—self-guided, brief study for each practice
  • Intergenerational Session—option for your church to have an event or explore the practice as a whole congregation together
  • Curriculum Connections—information about what each age level is doing weekly
  • Practicing the Practice at Home—a two-sided page for families about how to practice the practice at home
  • Children’s Worship Leaflets—weekly two-sided page with practice ideas, games, an adapted Bible story, and a coloring picture

In addition to the material in the Adult Leader’s Guide and the Adult Reflection Guide, there are also free videos that leaders can use as conversation starters for the unit and each session. Visit our YouTube Channel, bit.ly/FMYouTubeGFR, to see the playlist for this unit.
