Pastor and author James Emery White leads his church and his life with a singular mission: to turn spiritual explorers into fully devoted followers of Christ. The obvious first step in this process is for someone to cross the line of faith--to say, "I believe." That was the heart behind his book Christianity for People Who Aren't Christians. But what comes after "I believe" is equally important, and it's the way someone truly becomes a fully devoted follower of Christ. This manual for discipleship takes new Christians through the basics of growing in the faith and connecting with the church, including:

Prioritizing Bible study: Developing a regular prayer life: Spending quiet time with God: Plugging into the life of a local church: Experiencing God in worship: Finding ways to serve others: Being faithful with finances: and more.

A perfect resource for pastors and ministry leaders to offer to the new believers in their midst, After I Believe is a solid foundation for anyone seeking to build a vibrant Christian life.

James Emery White has done a masterful job of explaining discipleship for new and seasoned believers alike. Often, the great books on discipleship are deep but inaccessible. Others are easy to read but lack depth. Jim takes a wealth of knowledge and insight on the essentials of Christian discipleship and makes them wonderfully easy to understand but deep enough to authentically help you.

Living a life with Christ is not a one-time commitment. White reminds us that it is a lifetime of intentional choices and disciplined practices that help us in our desire to be followers of Jesus.
