Write-Up Wednesday {Wild Goose Chase}

Wild Goose Chase by Mark Batterson
Reclaim the adventure of pursuing God




Get up on your feet.  Begin living.  "Set God-sized goals."

A small-ish book, but one that'll get you thinking.  If you love a safe, routine, ordinary, un-exciting life, then this book might just rattle your cage.  If you're bound for adventure, love change and all the uncertainty that accompanies it, Wild Goose Chase will encourage those thoughts and plans.

Very similar to his best-selling "In a Pit with a Lion on a Snowy Day",  Mark Batterson challenges the reader to go beyond, think bigger, act more and seek God.



Here are a couple of his 'one-liners.'

Go after a dream that is destined to fail without divine intervention.

Don't let fear dictate your decisions.

Don't maintain the status quo.

You have to stop repeating the past and start creating the future.

Expand your horizons.

Take off your sandals.

Don't let what's wrong with you stop you from worshipping what's right with God.

Burn sinful bridges.

Don't make a living.  Make a life.

Chase the Goose!
