 |
Releasing Feb 2011 with Baker Books To Purchase Click Here For an Excerpt Click Here To live surrendered gives us the incredible freedom to live untamed. It’s our surrender that leads us into the presence of God and it’s these God encounters that define and release us into an untamed existence. This existence is available to every believer! It is found in the promise Jesus made before He ascended. A promise of a Spirit led life, a Spirit breathed life, a life of seeing where the Father moves and moving with Him. Surrendered & Untamed, A Field Guide for the Vagabond Believer is part of a series by the same title (S&U) that includes four films hosted by Mark Batterson (author and pastor) and a participant’s guide. Whether experienced in a group setting or individually, the combined impact of the book, DVD, and participant's guide will ignite the faith and stir the imagination of readers as it leads them to the presence of God and the promise of a Spirit-led life.

Endorsements for Surrendered & Untamed
"Surrendered and Untamed reaches into the depths of the human soul, taking an honest and refreshing look at what it means to have a personal relationship with the living God. Jason confronts 'religiosity' and brings Christianity back to the lifestyle Jesus set before His disciples of radical love and extreme faith. This book will renew your passion for the type of radical Christianity needed in the world today."--James Krechnyak Jr., church planter, Ireland; author, Through the Wilderness and Living the Dream
"Beautiful and thought provoking, but more than that . . . Surrendered and Untamed will unleash in you the desire to boldly go where you were destined to go and achieve the dreams God planted in your heart even against seemingly impossible odds. It will give you the awareness that Jesus is with you every step along the journey of life."--Julia Loren, author, When God Says Yes: His Promise & Provision When You Need It Most
"I read it, loved it, laughed with it, and cried in it. My prayer is that God would find on earth not a generation of the selfish and comfortable, the independent and domesticated, but a generation of the totally surrendered and untamed. May I be one of them." --Mika Yrjola, senior pastor, Canberra International Church
"Forty years ago, The Edge of Adventure by Keith Miller and Bruce Larson stood on top of the Christian bestseller list. The authors said one of the chief marks of emotional and spiritual health is a willingness to take risk. Well, a generation later comes Surrendered and Untamed. Jason Clark, Joel Clark, and Mark Batterson are living the adventure, taking bold risks, pushing every envelope, all in search of the story--the story of God's inbreaking, Christ's transforming, the Spirit's empowering work in their lives and in the lives of those around them. Consider yourself warned, your life will become less boring just for reading this!"--Jack Haberer, editor, Presbyterian Outlook
"Jason Clark is a man sent from God. He has been wired to help us see aspects of God that we need to see, but that we may not have seen on our own. Like the apostle John, he urgently declares what he has both seen and heard. Surrendered and Untamed is his declaration, and reading it is an adventure. Hang on--this will stretch you."--Dick Grout, director of music, Elim Bible Institute
