The Simple Genius of “Practicing the Way”, by John Mark Comer

A video reflection on John Mark Comer's Practicing the Way and what it means to apprentice under Jesus.

By Tim Barber··Video·Updated

Today, I want to share with you my thoughts on a groundbreaking book that has truly transformed my perspective on what it means to live like Jesus in today’s world. The book I’m talking about is “Practicing the Way: Be With Jesus, Become Like Him, Do As He Did” by John Mark Comer.

In “Practicing the Way,” John Mark invites us to embrace a new way of life centered around the teachings and example of Jesus of Nazareth. He challenges us to move beyond merely believing in Jesus’ death, burial, and resurrection and instead calls us to become His disciples, apprentices who live out His teachings as a way of life. The book is divided into three main sections: “Being with Jesus,” “Becoming Like Him,” and “Doing What He Did.”

Each section explores essential aspects of discipleship and offers practical insights on how to apply them in our daily lives. I must admit, the book gripped me from the very beginning. So much so that I finished it within hours of its release. I couldn’t help but pause every now and then, taking notes and reflecting on its profound insights.

This isn’t just another self-help book or a list of practical tips. It’s a call to embrace a way of life that leads to true abundance and peace in the midst of our chaotic world. If you’re seeking to deepen your discipleship and truly live like Jesus, I wholeheartedly recommend “Practicing the Way.”

Let’s join hands in this transformative journey as we learn to prioritize the way of Jesus in every aspect of our existence. To dive deeper into the profound ideas presented in this book, I encourage you to watch the full video on YouTube. Trust me, it’s a game-changer! Together, let’s take up the easy yoke, set aside the burdens of this world, and journey towards a life of true discipleship.

Are you ready? Let’s practice the way of Jesus and experience a life that overflows with His love, grace, and purpose.

Watch the full video on YouTube and let’s embark on this transformative adventure together.
