Apprentice Life
finding life in the way of Jesus
"Follow Me"
If there was a person who was more awake to the goodness of life, more wise, more kind, more effective and more humble than anyone else who had ever lived, and he invited you to be his apprentice and learn everything he knows, wouldn't that be the greatest offer you could ever receive?
