Description

Most people run away from lions. One man in the Bible chased one — and that single act of audacious courage changed the trajectory of his entire life. In Chase the Lion, New York Times bestselling author Mark Batterson uses the extraordinary story of Benaiah — the ancient warrior who chased a lion into a pit on a snowy day and killed it — as the launching pad for one of the most electrifying books ever written about faith, courage, and the pursuit of God-sized dreams.

This is not a book about playing it safe. It is a book about chasing the very thing that terrifies you most — because that is exactly where God is waiting for you.

The Central Challenge of This Book: Most people spend their entire lives managing their fears rather than chasing their dreams. They make just enough moves to stay comfortable, take just enough risks to feel alive, and settle for a life that is respectable but never remarkable. Mark Batterson argues that this is not wisdom — it is disobedience. That the dreams God plants in your heart are not suggestions. They are assignments. And the only response worthy of them is to chase them with everything you have.

What This Book Reveals:

On Dream-Chasing:

Why the size of your dream is a direct reflection of your view of God — and how to dream bigger than your circumstances
How to identify the God-sized dream that has been planted specifically in you
Why the most dangerous prayer you can pray is also the most life-changing one
How to move from dreaming to doing — from vision to courageous first steps

On Facing Fear:

Why the lion you are most afraid to chase is usually the one God is calling you toward
How to reframe fear as a compass pointing toward your divine assignment rather than a warning to retreat
The difference between the fear that protects you and the fear that imprisons you
How Benaiah’s lion-chasing moment equipped him for every promotion that followed

On Faith and Courage:

Why playing it safe is one of the greatest spiritual risks of all
How bold faith produces outcomes that cautious faith never can
The role of preparation, persistence, and prayer in positioning yourself to seize God-given opportunities
How to develop the kind of audacious, lion-chasing faith that changes your story

On God’s Purposes:

How God uses the most unlikely people, in the most unlikely places, to accomplish the most unlikely things
Why your greatest mistakes and most painful seasons are often the precise preparation for your greatest assignments
How to recognise divine appointments — the moments when God-ordained opportunity and courageous action intersect
Why the legacy you leave is built one lion-chasing decision at a time

Who This Book Is For:

Every Christian who senses a God-sized calling but has been paralysed by fear, self-doubt, or the opinions of others
Young Kenyans standing at crossroads — in career, ministry, education, or purpose — who need the courage to take the next bold step
Entrepreneurs and founders building something from nothing who need faith to match their vision
Church leaders, pastors, and ministry workers who have become too comfortable with the status quo
Anyone who has ever had a dream so big it scared them — and walked away from it
Every reader of In Pursuit of Purpose (Myles Munroe) and Name It! Claim It!! Take It!!! (Dag Heward-Mills) ready for the next level of faith-fuelled action

Why Kenyan Christians Are Buying This Book: Kenya is a nation of dreamers — young, hungry, faith-filled people who sense that God has placed something extraordinary inside them but struggle to find the courage to pursue it fully. Chase the Lion is the book that breaks the paralysis. It speaks directly to the Kenyan believer who is tired of watching others step into their destiny while they wait for a safer moment that never comes. There is no safer moment. There is only now. And the lion is waiting.
