Mark Batterson at Englewood

Well, I've had 2 days to process Mark's "Chase The Lion" message from Wed. night. Maybe somebody smarter than us can get it available for audio download here in a few days so check back (we're baby bloggers w/limited abilities!). I guess you could say we're Chasing The Technology Lion. :)

Having already read "In A Pit, With A Lion, On A Snowy Day," I found myself equally intrigued by the content and conviction. Content was awesome, conviction was palpable. Palpable is defined as "capable of being touched or felt." Mark has done "Chase The Lion" all over the country, but he puts it out there in such a way you feel you can touch your dream.

It was so great to hear Mark in person. He even flew in early Wed. to spend time with our pastoral staff and some key leaders on "The Big Idea". Brian can blog about that soon. By the way, I think we must have set a record for number of books sold at Englewood in one night. We went through almost 4 cases of books at 24 per case!

That probably speaks for itself, but tell us what you thought of Mark's message, give us a testimony, or let us know how you were challenged. You can post a comment by registering here (it's painless, really) or shoot us an e-mail at revross12@comcast.net.

Looking forward to this Sunday's kickoff of our "Chase The Lion" series!
