Win a Wild Goose!

Mark Batterson's new book will be released tomorrow.  To celebrate, the publisher has given me a free copy to give away right here on this blog! 

Mark's first book, In a Pit with a Lion on a Snowy Day, challenged me to grab life by the mane.  We've also used it in our church both in leadership team discussions and as small group curriculum. 

The new book is called Wild Goose Chase.  You can find it here.  Here's a summary:

Celtic Christians had a name for the Holy Spirit- An Geadh-Glas, or "the Wild Goose."  The name hints at mystery.  Much like a wild goose, the Spirit of God cannot be tracked or tamed.  An element of danger, an air of unpredictability surround Him.  And while the name may sound a little sacrilegious, I cannot think of a better description of what it's like to follow the Spirit through life.  I think the Celtic Christians were on to something.

So, here's how to win your own free copy of the book...

Mark's first two books have had creative titles and he seems to be challenging us to chase animals (chase the Lion and chase the Goose).  So, here's the challenge.

• Leave a comment with your most creative suggestion for the title of Mark's third book
• All animals are fair game
• The submissions will be review by my independent selection committee
• The winner will be announced right here on Friday

And just to spice up the competition a bit, I'm even going to throw in two other brand new books for second and third place: Finding God Beyond Harvard and Chuck Colson's most recent book The Faith.  That means that three people will win a brand new book!

Let the naming begin!

I think there may be a possible book in this title from Psalm 18:33:

Birds Have Nests, Foxes Have Dens: Getting out of your comfort zone and changing the world for God.
