wild goose chase (summary and giveaway)

Book: Wild Goose Chase
Author: Mark Batterson
Summary:
Most of us have no idea where we’re going most of the time. Perfect.

“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….

Most of us will have no idea where we are going most of the time. And I know that is unsettling. But circumstantial uncertainty also goes by another name: Adventure.” –from the introduction

EDITED: Again, please send me an email (simplescrapper AT gmail DOT com) rather than leaving a comment on this post. I re-did this post so the people who have already commented are entered into the drawing, but I need everyone else to send me an email. The way I do drawings works much better when done with email addresses in hand rather than scrolling through comments hoping the person whose number was drawn left me a way to contact them……I know most everyone else does drawings through comments, but I have found it works better if people who want to be entered send me an email. Thanks!
