<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Batterson believes that most people have no idea where they are going most ofthe time. While this may be unsettling, the author believes this adventure isat the heart of pursuing God.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>Most of us have no idea where we're going most of the time. Perfect. <p/></b>"Celtic Christians had a name for the Holy Spirit-<i>An Geadh-Glas, </i>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.... <p/>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." <i>--from the introduction</i><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p> "Mark Batterson's <i>Wild Goose Chase</i> detonates anemic Christianity masquerading as the 'real thing' and winsomely propels us to what can be and should be if we allow God's Spirit to be all He can be in our lives.
