Follower - Teen Bible Study Book

Maybe you had been thinking about it for a long time, or maybe you decided in a spontaneous moment. You walked an aisle, prayed a prayer, took a class, or spoke with someone you’ve known and trusted for years or just met for the first time. No matter how it happened, you did it. You responded in faith to God’s call, and you’ve given your life to Jesus. You placed your faith in Him to do for you what you cannot do for yourself—give salvation.

So, what comes next?
