About this listen

 Your greatest regret at the end of your life will be the lions you didn't chase. You will look back longingly on risks not taken, opportunities not seized, and dreams not pursued. Stop running away from what scares you most and start chasing the God-ordained opportunities that cross your path.

In a Pit with a Lion on a Snowy Day is inspired by one of the most obscure yet courageous acts recorded in Scripture, a blessed and audacious act that left no regrets: "Benaiah chased a lion down into a pit. Then, despite the snow and slippery ground, he caught the lion and killed it" (2 Samuel 23:20 -21). Unleash the lion chaser within!

I got about 1 hour in and had to stop. I have no problems with religion, or God, and I believe everyone has a right to believe whatever they choose. But this book mentioned "God" and what "God wants for us" so many times in the first hour. I wanted to be inspired, not converted to religion. this was just too much for me

don't bother unless you are staunchly religious
