Not A Fan Small Group Study

Not A Fan Bible Study
Not A Fan Bible Study by Kyle Idleman bills itself as "A thought provoking 42-day devotional guide designed to assist you on your journey from fan to follower." This 42-day devotional guide is designed to be used with the Not A Fan Video DVD and is written in a journal format. Like most journals, you get out of it what you put into it. Ideally, you have the time to consult with it during the day for thoughts and encouragement on what it means to be a follower and not merely a fan of Christ. The format encourages you to interact with it three times a day in the "Morning suggestion", "Noon Reminder" and "Evening Reflection" activities. Many of the activities are designed to challenge your thinking about how to make Jesus the center of your life. This journal has a similar theme to the popular Radical Bible Study, and in the end encourages Christians to radical discipleship by being a true follower of Christ.You can read more about the study and see a video preview here.
