Hero Worship: A 12 Week Journey to Become More Like Jesus Volume 1

The idea behind hero worship is that Jesus is our ultimate hero, and we live our lives in imitation of him as we do many of our other heroes. Ultimately, we become like the thing we worship. To know him is to love him. To love him is to trust him. To trust him is to obey him joyfully. To joyfully obey him is to love the way he loves. In hero worship, we observe practices that imitate various rhythms we see in Jesus' earthly ministry. When we imitate him in these practices, we are saying, "Here I am. I want to be close to you. I want to be like you. And I am prioritizing our relationship out of love and admiration.
