"This book is moving, challenging, and inspiring. Katie Prejean McGrady always finds a way to get you nodding along with her and she is always authentic. While modern culture is often lacking in common sense, this book is a wonderful invitation back to sensible thought and prayer. We are lucky to have Katie as a teacher and will richly benefit from her wisdom here. Follow is a gift to all who want a relationship with Jesus but just don't know exactly where to start." -- Mark Hart , Executive Vice President, Life Teen "A masterful blend of heartfelt testimony, impactful insights from the life of Christ, and practical ways to walk as a disciple." -- Joel Stepanek , Director of Resource Development, Life Teen "Katie Prejean McGrady offers practical wisdom and solid steps for developing and living out the most important relationship for which each one of us has been made." -- Rev.
Mike Schmitz , Director of the Office of Youth Ministry, Diocese of Duluth " Follow will inspire and teach you and help you find Jesus. Read it, absorb it, and share it with others as you embark on your lifelong adventure with Jesus!" -- Christina Lamas , Executive Director, National Federation for Catholic Youth Ministry "How does someone follow Jesus in our world today? Katie Prejean McGrady has given us a true gift--a practical, authentic, and intensely personal account of what it means to follow Jesus through prayer, scripture, service, sacraments, adoration, and evangelization. Katie takes your hand and leads you to Jesus. What a well-written, spot-on, and helpful book that is greatly needed for young Catholics finding their way today!" -- Sarah Swafford , Author of Emotional Virtue " Follow isn't just a book to read, it's a book to do. Katie Prejean McGrady is the Ms. Frizzle of Catholicism, walking teens through the most foundational ways that their Catholic faith invites them to take chances, avoid mistakes, and get messy in their pursuit of Christ. The book needs no prerequisites, offering an introduction to prayer, scripture, sacraments, and service that will both encourage and inspire a seasoned follower while not overwhelming new disciples." -- Alison Blanchet , Youth and Campus Minister, St.
John the Evangelist Catholic Church and School, Panama City, Florida "Knowing and following Jesus is often confusing and frustrating, especially for youth. Katie Prejean McGrady combines theological substance, relevant personal witness, plenty of humor, insight, practical suggestions, and step by step sequences to help teens know, love, and serve Jesus. She has produced an accessible field manual for living as a Catholic teen today. This will be a book teens visit and revisit time and again, as a source of comfort, direction, and inspiration." -- Roy Petitfils , Counselor, author, and speaker "I would probably be the pope by now if someone had shared this book with me when I was a teen! Understanding who Jesus is may seem difficult and distant, but Katie Prejean McGrady provides a clear roadmap to Christ. Follow unpacks practices for a personal relationship with Jesus Christ in the very best ways for a twenty-first-century Christian. Whether your journey is just beginning or has been going on for years, Katie's stories and suggestions will lead you straight to Jesus." -- Bill Staley , Director of youth and young adult ministry, Diocese of Nashville.
