Lion Chasers on the Loose

Had a blast speaking at Christian Life Center this weekend, and I think they set a book tour record. I'm never sure how many books to ship before I speak, but we went through 18 cases of books this weekend. I really perceived a tremendous spiritual hunger at CLC.

I think that creating culture is our most important and most difficult challenge as spiritual leaders. And there is no one-size-fits-all formula. But it's been amazing to see the way a book like In a Pit with a Lion on a Snowy Day can have a huge corporate impact if lots of people are reading it at the same time. So exciting to see some churches experience a tremendous culture shift. Nothing like the church when the church is playing offense!

If you need a case, email resources@theaterchurch.com. We'll hook you up!

Was at CLC on Sunday morning - to use your word - awesome!

It was an incredible service and an incredible place to worship.

I'll be keeping that service in my mind as I stirve to live on offense.

Been meaning to write you, Mark. For the past couple of years I have been working on a book to be titled "In The Grass With A Poodle On A Happy Sunshine Day." Do you see that as a problem?

Just kidding. Seriously, I have really enjoyed your book.

Gotta run. Have some lions to chase.

I would like to order 3 more cases! I am headed to India and Sri Lanka tomorrow to chase lions! Let's do it! What if the entire CHURCH was on the offense!!!!! I think we might fulfill the scripture that talks about storming the gates of hell! I think we might begin to take some captives back! I think we might be a part of those who would be violently and forcefully advancing the KINGDOM!!!!! In the words of Mel Gibson, FREEDOM!!!!!!!
