Description

What happens when we take Jesus at his word when he says, "I have come that you might have life and have it to the full?" New York Times bestselling author Mark Batterson and his mentor Richard Foth have done just that with their lives--and in A Trip around the Sun, they show readers how they too can experience their life and faith as the ultimate adventure.

In a fun, storytelling style, Mark and Dick challenge readers to shake off fear, dream big, and quit living as if the purpose of life is to arrive safely at death. The accumulated wisdom from their combined 117 trips around the sun radiates from every heartfelt page, invigorating those of us who have found ourselves stuck in a rut dug by our sense of duty and our fear of the unknown. Anyone who wants to grab life and squeeze every ounce of joy out of it will be inspired by this unapologetic celebration of the life Jesus died to give us.

Advance Praise

"There is no word in the English language like the word adventure. A Trip around the Sun will awaken your hunger to make your life your adventure. If you can read this book without being stirred to life--check your pulse."

John Ortberg, senior pastor of Menlo Park Presbyterian Church and author of Soul Keeping

"This is a terrific book, written by two of my favorite people on the planet. I've known Dick and Mark for many years, and they're trusted friends and guides. Though they are authors, scholars, leaders, and pastors, they don't care at all about titles. They care about people. I've seen the way they embrace the disenfranchised and the way they interact with leaders of entire countries. It's exactly the same. That's because they've learned to love people the way Jesus did. You'll want to do the same after reading this book."

Bob Goff, attorney and author of Love Does

"A magnetic message of risk, reflection, and relationship. Throw this one in your luggage for your next trip around the sun."
