Mark holds a Doctor of Ministry degree from Regent University and is the New York Times best-selling author of seventeen books, including The Circle Maker, In a Pit with a Lion on a Snowy Day, Wild Goose Chase, Play the Man, Whisper, and, most recently, Double Blessing. Rather than seeing a five-hundred-pound problem, they see an opportunity for God to show up and show His power. With grit and gusto, In a Pit with a Lion on a Snowy Day, described how our outlook can help determine our outcome in life.

I think it is safe to say his “Lion Chaser’s Manifesto” will follow me for the rest of my days, challenging me to be everything and do everything, I was put on this planet to do. With grit and gusto, New York Times bestselling author Mark Batterson delivers a bold message to everyone with a big dream. I loved so much within this book and, after only three chapters, had to proclaim that this might be one of the best books I’ve read this year. I just finished reading Mark Batterson’s new book, Chase The Lion: If Your Dream Doesn’t Scare You, It’s Too Small. Despite mentioning biblical topics like those I described above (service, conformity to Christ, eternal reward, faithfulness, and suffering well), the book ends up giving the impression that if you live a simple life you’re not following Jesus well enough.But you’ve got to admit, “I killed a lion in a pit on a snowy day” looks awfully impressive on your résumé, es- pecially if you’re applying for a bodyguard position with the king of Israel. Mark challenges his readers to honor their upline (those who have invested in them) and empower their downline (those who come after them). Mark is married to Lora and they live on Capitol Hill with their three children: Parker, Summer, and Josiah. Mark holds a Doctor of Ministry degree from Regent University and is the New York Times bestselling author of 19 books. If you want to be challenged to dream bigger, do more, and have a stronger faith, this book is the perfect read for you.
