4.0 out of 5 stars Chasing Lions, Nov 14 2006

By	James T. Line (Smethport, PA USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

In a literary age when there seems to be dozens of books answering "what to do when you are in a hardship," or "why bad things happen to good people," Batterson takes a fresh approach. He openly challenges his readers to pursue things that may very well place them in hardships. His thesis states basically that unless we take a step of faith, and pursue those things that seem impossible or may cause us to look like fools, we may never make it to where God wants us to be. He uses Scripture in the Old Testament that many would just skim over, taking little from it, and from the passage (dealing with an Ancient bodyguard to one famous King) he builds his entire book.

The book reads like a sermon, but it is an exciting sermon. Many practical, real life illustrations hold the reader's interest. It is not a how-to book like so many others. This is an easy to read book that anybody can learn from and apply to everyday life.

On a personal note, Batterson challenged me in many ways. I must say that in areas on my life where I have been tempted to give up I now feel somewhat revived and energized. As a church planter, I can say that I am anxious to try things that at one time I thought "silly." Now, I know that God uses silly things to accomplish great feats.

I highly recommend this book. It will challenge anybody to pursue those things that many would simply scoff at, with the anticipation of God rewarding them greatly.
