Chase the Lion: If Your Dream Doesn't Scare You, It's Too Small

Product Information

Maybe because “chasing your dreams” isn’t exactly a biblical concept…) The title of the book (“Chase the Lion”) comes from 2 Samuel 23:20, which says, “And Benaiah the son of Jehoiada…went down and struck down a lion in a pit on a day when snow had fallen” (ESV).

The following are some of the highlights that encouraged me and inspire me to continue to pursue dreams that God brings to my heart.

Straight from God’s Word, Chase the Lion is a great message for any team and for people in every walk of life.

Our Savior is ready and willing to take on incredible life journeys that shake the world and bring glory to His name. In fact, he goes so far as to argue that we may even be fulfilling the dreams that someone had years ago and not even realize it. He tells stories that inspire, and his church planting experience inspires me to always envision a bigger, better, brighter future.By using the Web site, you confirm that you have read, understood, and agreed to be bound by the Terms and Conditions. Based upon 2 Samuel 23, Chase the Lion tells the true story of an ancient warrior named Benaiah who chased a lion into a pit on a snowy day–and then killed it. You need a dream that doesn’t allow you to become spiritually sidetracked, a dream that demands your utmost for His highest. With grit and gusto, New York Times best-selling author Mark Batterson delivers a bold message to everyone with a big dream. Though the premise is solid (and something I’m genuinely intrigued by), Chasing the Lion ended up being more self promotion than inspiration.
