Choices unlock divine moments. Pastor and author Erwin Raphael McManus
invites readers to choose a life of blazing urgency.
Are you willing to risk failure? Are you ready to get in the game? You
may stumble, but you will find yourself falling forward, propelled
toward the God-inspired adventure He intends you to live. Using the
biblical characters of Saul and Jonathan during Israel's war with the
Philistines (1 Samuel 13 and 14), Chasing Daylight (formerly titled
Seizing Your Divine Moment) demonstrates the difference between living a
life of purpose and adventure and living one of apathy and missed
opportunity. While Saul rested beneath a pomegranate tree, Jonathan
seized the divine moment and redirected the future of Israel. McManus
uses Jonathan's example to artfully illustrates the eight
characteristics of an adventurer's heart, what he calls "the Jonathan
factor"
- Taking initiative
- Accepting uncertainty
- Stewarding influence
- Embracing risk
- Continuing to advance
- Creating impact
- Moving in obedience
- Awakening potential
We have but one life. We are given one opportunity to pursue our dreams
and fulfill our divine purpose. Every moment counts, and we must engage
them with fierceness and zeal. In Chasing Daylight, Erwin Raphael
McManus offers the tools to put an end to passive observation and start
seizing the raw, untapped potential of your life with God.
