Stop running away from what scares you most and start chasing the God-ordained opportunities that cross your path.

Giant Lessons from David


Book Description

The definition of success varies widely from person to person and is often influenced by one’s goals, dreams, experiences, and stage in life. Anyone considered to be a public success has survived personal attacks, sabotage, hardships, and disappointments. Nevertheless, neither their survival nor success would be noteworthy apart from the lessons they learned along the way. This book is not intended to be a self-help guide that dictates a prearranged series of steps to success. Rather, by drawing insights from the life of David (who began as a humble shepherd boy and became the most celebrated king in the history of Israel), “Giant Lessons From David” seeks to help you manage your own journey of success. To that end, this book makes a few fundamental presuppositions. First, success is a journey that always entails enemies, experiences, and emotions that must be managed. Second, success is influenced by the providential favor of God. Third, there are valuable lessons to be learned about God, life, and self at every stage of the journey. Practical, uplifting, and relatable, this biblically based book of “Giant Lessons” from the life of David is a must-read for anyone looking to manage the highs and lows of a successful life.




Chase the Lion


Book Description

Quit playing it safe and start running toward the roar! Now available for the first time in a convenient paperback edition and featuring a brand new group discussion guide. When the image of a man-eating beast travels through the optic nerve and into the visual cortex, the brain sends the body a simple but urgent message: run away! That’s what normal people do, but not lion chasers. Rather than seeing a five-hundred-pound problem, they see an opportunity for God to show up and show His power. Chase the Lion is more than a catch phrase; it’s a radically different approach to life. It’s only when we stop fearing failure that we can fully seize opportunity by the mane. With grit and gusto, New York Times best-selling author Mark Batterson delivers a bold message to everyone with a big dream. This is a wake-up call to stop living as if the purpose of life was to simply arrive safely at death. Our dreams should scare us. They should be so big that without God they would be impossible to achieve. Quit running away from what you’re afraid of. Chase the lion! Change the world! What is your five-hundred-pound dream? In this highly anticipated sequel to his best-selling In a Pit with a Lion on a Snowy Day, Mark Batterson invites lion chasers everywhere to chase dreams so impossible that victory demands we face our fears, defy the odds, and hold tight to God. These are the kind of dreams that will make you a bigger person and the world a better place. 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. For most people, that situation wouldn’t just be a problem…it would be the last problem they ever faced. For Benaiah, it was an opportunity to step into his destiny. After defeating the lion, he landed his dream job as King David’s bodyguard and eventually became commander-in-chief of Israel’s army under King Solomon. Written in a way that both challenges and encourages, this revolutionary book will help unleash the faith and courage you need to identify, chase, and catch the five-hundred-pound dreams in your life.
