Synopsis

What are you chasing?  

Are you doing everything right but still feel empty? Are you so busy doing things for God and everyone else that you altogether miss him? Do you ever, in your busy life, stop and see him, really see him?  

Jennie Allen felt paralyzed in her relationship with God. It occurred to her that maybe she was chasing the wrong things. Maybe God was after something else. When she stumbled across the phrase in 1 Samuel 13, "David was a man after God's own heart," she was intrigued. She knew David was both completely broken, and completely sold out for God.  

David's life shatters our ideas of what God wants from us. In Chase, Jennie shows us a man who spent his life chasing after God, which points to several things we shouldn't be chasing: 

• Don't chase self-worth by achieving more 
• Don't chase freedom by protecting yourself 
• Don't chase approval by being moral 
• Don't chase love by running away from guilt 
• Don't chase answers by rejecting God 
• Don't chase satisfaction by rebelling  
• Don't chase fulfillment. Chase God! 

The Chase Leader's Guide serves as a tool to prepare you in leading this study and to encourage you along the way. It helps you as the leader to effectively point your group to the overarching theme of each lesson.
