1. Chase the Lion (sermon series)

Chase the Lion

When the image of a man-eating beast travels through the optic nerve and into the visual cortex, the brain sends the body an urgent message: run! That’s what normal people do, but not lion chasers. Rather than seeing a five-hundred-pound problem, they see an opportunity for God to show up and show His power.

Has God given you a HUGE dream for you church? Has He given you a HUGE dream for your community?

This is what Chase the Lion is all about.

Centering on II Samuel 23, Chase the Lion tells the true story of an ancient warrior named Benaiah who chased a lion into a pit on a snowy day—and then killed it. This series also recounts the miraculous stories of David’s other mighty men, and their exploits for the Kingdom of Israel. This 5-week series, based on the new book by Mark Batterson, will help your congregation unleash the faith and courage they need to identify, chase, and catch the five-hundred-pound dreams God has given them to reach the world.
