About this title

Synopsis

"This idea of chasing beauty is about pursuing a lifestyle that goes against the cultural grain of busyness, loudness, and naked ambition—you know, the kind of ambition we're told we must have in order to find success in this cutthroat world."

But can we afford to chase beauty in a world that emphasizes distraction over marveling at true wonders?

The everyday road of life is littered with the pains of growing up, loving and failing to love, of peace and discord. What is God saying through all the muck of life? God speaks to us through beauty. But to hear his words, we must slow down and listen with our hearts.

What would happen if you and I slowed down and looked at the world and our lives with new eyes? In his counter-cultural book, The Beauty Chasers, author Timothy Willard shows us a secret passageway that leads beyond the muck of life and the utility mindset that banished beauty from our hearts. He gives us a guidebook for discovering how to see the world with fresh eyes and let beauty guide us in life and our relationship with God.

The Beauty Chasers will ...

inspire you to live life as a participant instead of a spectator.
guide you toward a life of presence rather than distraction.
give you permission to slow down and drink from the well of spiritual rest.
refresh your perspective on the "wonder-full" ways of God.
help you live like beauty matters.

Are you ready to live life to a different cadence? Do you find yourself longing to recapture the wonder in your spiritual journey? Are you willing to walk the path less traveled? If so, then read on, friend.
