In an effort to go beyond pious devotion and mere activism, Gittins encourages readers to reflect upon, be challenged by, and to act upon the words of Jesus, both in one's commitment to him and in doing good works.
Unlike the negative but well-known precepts of the Old Testement--the Ten Commandments--the commands of Jesus are postitive and relatively overlooked, despite their superb relevance to the challenges people face today. In "Come, Follow Me: The Commandments of Jesus, " Anthony J. Gittins helps the reader hear Christ's message and live it in everyday life. Gittins explores some of the positive and specific things that Jesus would have the reader do to follow him.
