In 2016, Mark Batterson wrote the book, Chase the Lion: If Your Dream Doesn’t Scare You, It’s Too Small.

The premise of the book is when you spot a lion, a man-eating beast, coming your way your first thought is to run, right?!

“That’s what normal people do, but not lion chasers,” says Batterson.

Rather than seeing the man-eating beast, lion chasers see an opportunity for God to show up and show His power.

Chase the Lion contains a wake-up call for Christians to stop living as if their purpose in life is to arrive safely at death.

Our dreams should scare us”, Batterson says, “They should be so big that without God, they would be impossible to achieve!”

Chase the Lion is guaranteed to inspire you to chase those lion-sized dreams God has placed in your hearts.

According to Amazon, these are the kind of dreams that will make you a bigger person and the world a better place.
Chase the Lion is based on the story of an ancient warrior named Benaiah from 2 Samuel 23 who chased a lion into a pit on a snowy day—and then killed it.

As Batterson says, “For most people, that situation wouldn’t just be a problem…it would be the last problem they ever faced.”

But for the warrior. Benaiah, it was the beginning of 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.

This is a wake-up call for us to stop living lives of safety. We need to quit running away from what scares us and run into the pit of lions instead.

In addition to the book, Mark also created the Chase the Lion Weekly Planner. It’s the perfect companion to Chase the Lion.
