    Title: The Wild Goose Chase: Reclaim the Adventure of Pursuing God

    Author: Mark Batterson

    Date I Finished Reading: January 19,2013

    My Rating: 5/5

    When you think of pursuing God, what comes to your mind? Duty? Struggle? How about adventure? Do you ever view your walk with God as an exciting, adventurous thing? In this book, Mark Batterson discusses spiritual barriers that can prevent us from growing closer to God, or finding satisfaction in him. He explores the barriers of:

    ~responsibility

    ~routine

    ~assumptions

    ~guilt

    ~failure

    ~fear

    He discusses how each of these things can, at times hinder us from growth, and the signs of them in our lives.

    One thing I liked about this book would be Batterson's writing style. He writes with honest humor that makes the book an easy, enjoyable read. I also liked how applicable this book is. The issues addressed and the actions recommended are practical and applicable to our personal and daily lives.

    I really had no complaints about this book, besides the fact that Batterson becomes a bit repetitive at times. Other than that, I have none!

    I would highly recommend this book to you, especially if you are struggling with spiritual growth and desire a resource to help you identify what barrier may be hindering you from pursuing and growing closer to God.

    Note: I received a copy of this book free from the publisher in exchange for my honest review. However, my opinions are my own.

    I have read all three of Mark Batterson's books and have found them all profound. Having just recently read "The Wild Goose Chase," I can say with certainty that it is one of the most thought-provoking and challenging books I have ever read. Batterson explores six cages that keep us from fulfilling what God has called us to do. Pick up the book, read it and then sit quietly as God reveals His desire for your own "chase."

    Mark Batterson is a dynamic and inspirational author that uses real life examples of faith. His encouragement to get out and experience God's spirit is wonderful. I have chosen this book to give to others I meet that are willing to step out in there faith and do something. A great encourgement tool.
