On Monday during our staff meeting, Bryan handed each staff member a book,” Chase the Lion” a study from the book “In a Pit With a Lion On a Snowy Day” by Mark Batterson. He explained that we would be going through this book together over the next 6 weeks.
I have read the first two chapters of “In a Pit With a Lion On a Snowy Day” and can’t wait to read the rest. The book is based on an obscure verse of scripture 2 Samuel 23:20-23 about a man named Benaiah who found himself in a pit with a lion on a snowy day and killed the lion. He was a lion chaser he didn’t run from the lion, but he stayed to fight the lion.
I want to be a lion chaser and run after opportunity.
It’s a great study so far and I can see a lion chaser in us all.
Dear Jen,
I can hardly wait to get the book and find out what God will say to me thru this book. Just want you to know that I’m very proud of you and you are an amazing woman of God. I just don’t know how you do all you do. Yes, I do. It is by God’s grace and strength. He has also put an overwhelming desire in your heart to make a difference in the lives of the kids of the Rock. You are making a HUGE DIFFERENCE! I pray the Lord overwhelm you today with His love, joy, strength and grace. You are a Mighty Woman of God!
Love You
MOM
