The God Chasers: My Soul Follows Hard After Thee Ebooks Online
A God chaser is a person whose passion for God's presence presses him to chase the impossible in hopes that the uncatchable might catch him. A child chases a loving parent until, suddenly, the strong arms of the father enfold the chaser. The pursuer becomes the captive; the pursued the captor. Paul put it this way: "I chase after that I may catch that which apprehended me" (Phil. 3:12).Job was a God chaser. He said, "Oh that I knew where I might find Him!" David was one; he said, "My soul followeth hard after Thee." Paul was one too: "That I may know Him..." The passionate paths of God chasers can be traced across the pages of history from Moses the stutterer, David the singer, and Paul the itinerant preacher, to contemporaries like A.W. Tozer, Leonard Ravenhill, and countless others who share one common bond: an insatiable hunger to know their Lord. These are people whose relentless, passionate pursuit of Christ often made them appear foolish in the eyes of others. Yet, having tasted His goodness and glimpsed the invisible, they could be satisfied with nothing less.Add your name to the list...become a God chaser. Who know? You might be one whom He catches.

I had to take a few minutes just to let all who are out there in search of a real relationship with God that this book is a must read! I thank God for giving Tommy Tenney the vision and inspiration to write this book. There are times I was weeping while reading because I couldn't believe that someone was finally able to put on paper what I've been feeling in my spirit so long. If you're tired of complacency and mediocrity in the body of Christ...this is the book for you. I think everyone who professes to be a Christian should read this book and put it into practice. I'm starting the chase...will you?
One of the greatest books I have read in the past 20 years. Tommy Tenney has captured the essence of what it means to truly chase after God. He explains that we can no longer be a gimme, gimme bunch of Christians running around asking what is God going to do for us. In the Last Days we have to die to self if we are to ever receive His Presence in our lives, families, churches and cities. Please read this book and then study it with someone who REALLY wants to know the heart of God. Excellent Old AND New Testament Bible study material of the symbolism God presents to us in His Word.
Several friends of mine had read THE GOD CHASERS and received a great deal out of it. However, I also knew several people who read the book and did not enjoy it all. I didn't know exactly what to expect and began reading this book with an open heart and an open mind. The book contains a powerful message about being broken and putting God first in our lives, so much so that we become a God-chaser instead of just being chased by God. The stress on brokeness is a message that the Church tends either to avoid nowdays or gloss over with a bunch of warm-fuzzy Christianity. As much as God is the loving, humble servant, God is also a fierce and mighty warrior. This is a lesson well worth remembering.Nevertheless, this book is not for everyone. The author makes that clear in his introduction. Not everyone will find the book interesting. Of course, it doesn't help that the author repeats himself in just about every chapter. Still, in this user-friendly world of ours we tend to forget how powerful and awesome God truly is. Anything that reminds us of that power is worth noticing.
The God Chaser is a must read book for anyone who has longed to have a relationship with God. It bypasses all the usual religious traditions that most of us have been taught and gets straight to the heart of the matter, God. This book is hard to put into words what it will give you but I gaurantee that after reading it, you will never be the same agan. You will have a thirst and a hunger to be with and know God.
I found this book to be so captivating. You can feel the anointing bursting forth from the pages. This will inspire you seek God... His presence, His glory, His glory. To truly chase after God means to abandon all that the worldly people and a ton of christians call comfortable. This is one book you will have to read a few times in your pursuit of God. I highly recommend it for the people who are dead serious about meeting God face to face.
This book should come with a warning label, "Your life will be significantly changed by the time you finish this book". Never have I read a book that has so thoroughly fed me spiritually, but also leaves me ever so hungry for Him. Besides the Bible, this book should be must reading for all serious Christians who want more of the Lord and less of religion.
After reading this book, I can tell you this: If you are just thinking of reading this book without seriously commiting yourself to take some action, then I suggest that you don't read it at all. The special mesage that God has placed in this book will not come alive in your life without your commitment. Although I agree with everyone that the context of this book is definitely an important one, I personally think this book would have been even more powerful if it was more concise and to the point. I really enjoyed(and learned much too! from) the first few chapters, but after a while I felt like the author was repeating himself over and over again. In my opinion, repeating what was said too many times and italicizing his words too often defeated its purpose of emphasizing important words and delivering the message with greater influence. However, this is a minor attribute considering the fact that it contains a critical message that every Christian who wants to seriously KNOW God needs to consider. I pray that through this book your life will be transformed so that everyday your soul follows HARD after God along with many God chasers in this world.
I had heard a lot about "The God Chasers" so I picked it up. The first chapter was excellent and I thought I had finally found a good book on experiencing the presence of God, which has been a life-long pursuit. After the initial chapter, the book degrades into a soapbox for Tenney's complaints about the modern church, pats on the back for his spirituality, and paints an Old Testament God that we should seek out of fear (not Godly fear, I'm talking terror here) not out of love. It's not popular to write a negative review on a Christian book but I'm tired of all these pop Christianity books that lack substance. This one is pure motivational drivel and that motivation stems from fear, no less. No thank you.
