Becoming a Beauty Chaser changes everything.

The everyday road of life is littered with the pains of growing up, of 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 The Beauty Chasers, Timothy Willard shows us a secret passageway that leads beyond the muck of life. He gives us a guidebook for discovering how we see the world with fresh eyes and let beauty guide us in life and our relationship with God.

Every person walks their own path in life. Our journeys take different routes, but we all arrive in the same place: before God. What will our footpaths teach us? Where will they take us spiritually? What footpaths are we carving out for ourselves throughout life?

  • Praise for The Beauty Chasers

    “Tim is my go-to source to learn what God calls beautiful. Not only has he studied beauty, but he writes beautifully. This book captures the imagination while guiding the reader along a journey of spiritual discovery and renewal. If you’re like me, always on the lookout for books that will inspire while also giving you time to catch my breath before God, then you will love The Beauty Chasers.”

    -ESTHER FLEECE ALLEN, bestselling author of No More Faking Fine and Your New Name

  • Praise for The Beauty Chasers

    “Tim is an expert for our times. Even before the world became more aware of its need to be awakened out of media-induced malaise, Tim was a student of beauty and its power to revive the human soul. The message in these pages is not one I can merely read but have to share: there is hope for even these days. With rich storytelling and prose, Tim gives us the guide to recapture the wonder we all need right now.”

    -SARA HAGERTY, bestselling author of Unseen, ADORE, and Every Bitter Thing Is Sweet

  • Praise for The Beauty Chasers

    “This book is a whimsical, meandering journey into a vast and (mostly) unexplored geography: the world of beauty. What is it? Why are we drawn to it? What are the ramifications for us as a society if we misrepresent or squander it? Tim Willard, willing and eager, ushers us into this vast expanse with stories and conversations and exposition, leaving us finally with the belief that there is so much more to the world than the material things we can see—and this is good.”

    -SHAWN SMUCKER, award-winning author of The Weight of Memory

  • Praise for The Beauty Chasers

    “Tim’s book is a radiant invitation not just to learn about beauty, but to live it; to taste and be transformed by God’s loveliness in a radical and restorative way. Tim is a kind and experienced guide who offers his readers the vision they need to undergo a transformative journey, to read the signs and understand the times, but he’s also a friend who comes along, helping them step-by-step into a wide and wondrous way of living. This book is a gift.”

    -SARAH CLARKSON, author of This Beautiful Truth

  • Praise for The Beauty Chasers

    “Tim writes with rare beauty and soul, like the great ones before him. C. S. Lewis. Frederick Buechner. Eugene Peterson. His new book, The Beauty Chasers, calls us away from shallow distractions and to a deeper life.”

    -JOHN SOWERS, author of Say All the Unspoken Things

  • Praise for The Beauty Chasers

    “I’m obsessed with Tim’s way of seeing the world. It convicts me and nourishes me all at the same time. We’ve never needed a book as much as we need this book right now. I’m sitting down and I’m listening. This book is helping me ‘see when the world goes blind.’ Thank you, Tim, for nudging us a little closer home.”

    -DR. EDIE WADSWORTH, author of All the Pretty Things
