Chase the Lion Tour

Just thought I’d share some pretty significant book developments that happened in the last week. Looks like the deal with Lifeway is a done deal. We’ll turn In a Pit with a Lion on a Snowy Day into a small group curriculum produced by Threads. It’ll release Fall 07.

And it looks like we’ll push back the release date of my next book on right-brain leadership till December 07 or January 08. Part of the reason for the delay is because we don’t want to short-circuit the impact of In a Pit with a Lion on a Snowy Day. Once my next book comes out I know I’ll switch gears and shift focus. And I just don’t think God is done with In a Pit. So I’m going to chase this lion through 2007.

So here’s the deal: we’re going to take the book on the road and do a Chase the Lion tour.

The event in Atlanta last week really impacted me. I think I caught a vision of what God wants to do with In a Pit. My over-riding prayer has been that God would raise up a generation of lion chasers. And I think events like the one in Atlanta can turn the book into a movement.

I’ve limited my outside speaking engagements to 30 nights in 2007. And I’m pretty close to that limit. But along with some of the conferences I’m speaking at, I’d like to do a few chase the lion events. So here’s the deal. If you’d like to host an event, shoot an email to amanda@theatherchurch.com.

I can’t make any promises, but I’d like to do 6-8 Chase the Lion events in a few major cities. There aren’t any stipulations. But I think it’s got to be the byproduct of prayer. In other words, you really feel like hosting a Chase the Lion event is something God has put in your spirit. It can’t be a good idea. It has to be a God idea. And secondly, I’d love to see this bring churches together. I was amazed at how many churches were represented in Atlanta. It’d be really cool for the events to cross church lines–kingdom events!
