LionYour greatest regret at the end of your life will be the lions you didn’t chase. You will regret the risks not taken, the opportunities not seized and the dreams not pursued. Stop running away from what scares you most and start chasing the God-ordained opportunities that cross your path. 

In a Pit with a Lion on a Snowy Day is inspired by one of the most obscure yet courageous acts recorded in Scripture (II Samuel 23:20-21): Benaiah chased a lion down into a pit. Then, despite the snow and slippery ground, he caught the lion and killed it.

If you’re ready to unleash the lion chaser within, check out this new book by Mark Batterson. Mark serves as lead pastor of National Community Church (theaterchurch.com) in Washington, DC , and is a daily blogger at evotional.com.

Plus, you may have heard Mark last week at the Innovative Church Conference 2006. You can watch and listen to his session at WiredChurches.com now!

Just so you know, Mark promised to send me a copy of the book for free, but I went ahead and ordered a copy from Amazon.com. I like it when my friends get a bump in their Amazon rankings. Last I checked, Mark’s new book is ranked #238 of all the books Amazon carries. That’s pretty cool!
