Ive run hard after many goals in my lifeeverything from the Olympics to the US Congress. Those pursuits pale in comparison to a true, lifelong discovery of the King. Thanns message in In Search of the King will breathe life into your pursuit of the King and will challenge you to make service in His court the highest priority of your life.

You were created by someone bigger than you for a story larger than your own. In Search of the King will inspire you to discover a more intimate, more passionate, and more authentic relationship with the One who has been pursuing you since the beginning of time. Thann Bennetts very personal and engaging style will captivate your heart and imagination and send you on a relentless journey to learn the character of Jesus, walk in His ways, and join His mission.

In Search of the King is about the most important journey anyone can take. One day we will all meet the King, but a wealth of joy and abundant life is waiting for those of us who find the King in this life. In Search of the King will lead you on an epic journey in which you will find yourself face-to-face with the King, and when you come face-to-face with the King there is nothing that will give you more hope, joy, and satisfaction.

Thann thoroughly exposes and explores the profound mystery of the entangled identity of God and man while challenging us to discover its mandates and rewards.

John Ashcroft

Attorney General of the United States (20012005)

Thann Bennett has given us all a wonderful gift. In Search of the King is as uplifting as it is challenging. If there is one thing that eludes so many Christians, it is an appreciation of the kingship of Christ. It seems we either place Jesus so high on a throne that we cannot relate to Him, or, we diminish His majesty and mar His greatness so we can relate to Him. Thann shows a way to avoid both spiritual errors and find the wonderful relationship we can all have with the King of Glory!

Rev. Rob Schenck, D.Min.

President, Faith and Action in the Nations Capital

Practical and biblical! In Search of the King takes a very big issue for manyfinding meaningand makes it palatable. Give this book to anyone looking for purpose!

Joshua Symonette

Campus Pastor at National Community Church and former NFL player

In an age that prefers rights over responsibilities, autonomy over accountability, and self-expression over self-surrender, the refrain, O, how I love Your law! has become increasingly rareand we are reaping dire consequences spiritually, culturally, and socially. Wise souls, on the other hand, understand that the only life worth living is the one in which heart, soul, strength, and mind are aligned with the Creators design for human flourishing. Thann Bennetts book, In Search of the King, provides such wise souls with an excellent road map. I highly recommend this book.

Scott Sauls

Senior Pastor of Christ Presbyterian Church in Nashville, Tennessee, and author of Jesus Outside the Lines and Befriend

In Search of the King is an insightful reminder that we already have a wise, just, and powerful King who knows our needs and recognizes our frailty. If we have forgotten that there is someone greater than ourselves, this is a wonderful spiritual jog for our memory.

James Lankford

United States Senator, Oklahoma

In Search of the King will inspire and stimulate everyone from the greatest in academia to the occasional reader. Thanns writing weaves personal illustrations with biblical applications in a way that motivates readers to action. You will walk away from reading this book determined to discover greater intimacy with God while walking in an ever-deeper realization of your lifes purpose!

Victor Marx

Founder, All Things Possible Ministries

In Search of the King challenged me to take stock of my own walk with Jesus. Am I discovering new things about Him each day? Am I becoming less so that He can become more? Is my life yielded to His service so that His amazing work is being accomplished? Thann Bennett led me on a journey of realizing what I have longed for all alongthat no matter where I am or what I am doing, I want to be found in the life altering presence of the King.

Susanna Foth Aughtmon

Author of Queen of the Universe: Encouragement for Moms and Their World Changing Work

When we hear the word king its easy to think in terms of earthly political power. And Thann Bennett would certainly be qualified to speak on that, given his many years cruising the marble halls of Capitol Hill in Washington D.C. But this wonderful book focuses on another kind of kingdom and a very different kind of KingChrist, the King of kings and Lord of lords. Immersed in Scripture and thoroughly practical, In Search of the King is a powerful reminder that amid a culture that too often emphasizes self-indulgence, Jesus calls us to a life of service and obedience perfectly exemplified by our high and holy King, Jesus Christ.
