There is nothing more important in this life or the one to come than an intimate connection with Jesus. Unfortunately, we have thousands of voices distracting us, and all too often we listen to them. We confuse proximity to God with intimacy with God. We content ourselves with a Christian-branded life yet miss out on what we were created for: knowing God intimately.

Sharing the story of a demon-possessed man who had every reason to run the other way when he encountered Jesus, Heath Adamson shows us how spiritual hunger can overcome our hopelessness, our shame, and our excuses. He encourages us to pursue God regardless of where we've been or where we are, seeing our salvation as a doorway. Once we walk through it, we can discover the love of God in a tangible way.

This book is for anyone who longs for a deeper connection to God, who has felt far from peace and hope, and who needs the assurance that God is both interested in who they are and accepts them as they are.

"The Sacred Chase encourages all believers to engage authentically with the unbridled pursuit of God's presence. Read this book and engage in the holy quest that reveals why we are alive."--Bill Johnson, Bethel Church, Redding, CA; author of The Way of Life and Raising Giant-Killers
