After having my life changed by Mark Batterson’s book, In a Pit with a Lion for a Snowy Day, I was excited to hear about his latest book, Primal. Mark writes from the perspective of a student who is always wanting to learn and stretch. Using examples from history, his own life, science and math he takes the reader on a journey to rediscover the “Primal” roots of Christianity. Taking the words of the Great Commandment to love God with all our heart, soul, mind, and strength, Batterson begins the quest to help individuals and churches become great at the Great Commandment once again. The four primal elements he explores are compassion, wonder, curiosity, and energy. Mark isn’t an author who takes you on an easy path. He is constantly challenging you to think and act differently in specific ways that impact the lives of others. I think that’s what I appreciate about his writing most. he doesn’t want to leave you where you are, but to lead you further on your journey of faith. Here’s another link to purchase the book at www.waterbrookpress.com. I encourage you to make Primal the first book you read in 2010!
