More of a Good Thing
Tozer writes, "We've lost the awe, the wonder, the fear and the delight. Why? Because we've lost God, or at least we've lost our high and lofty concept of God - the only concept of God that He honors". And so it is today; we can hear the great men and women of old calling to us, "Your God is too small!" What is needed is the strong medicine that comes from an intense gaze upon the Godhead. Tozer has done this and has written in a way that you and I can easily understand. This book encourages us to do the same - to come to know God for who He is and not just for whom we think He might be.

Volume Two contains the following chapters; God's Character; God's Self-Existence; God's Transcendence; God's Eternalness; God's Omnipotence; God's Immutability; God's Omniscience; God's Wisdom; God's Sovereignty; God's Faithfulness; and God's Love.

If some of these chapter titles sound a bit heavy or boring, take heart! They are not. I think you will find them to be life-giving water in the midst of a spiritual desert and a very real source of peace as God's Name is lifted up and magnified from cover to cover in this book. Yes! How great is our God!

The Attributes of God
Excellent resource about God and important characteristics about Him, that's useful in understanding the vastness of His realm. Very valuable resource.

Awesome book, I have read it 3 times since getting it.
A friend of mine suggested this book after her women's group read it together as a study guide on God's attributes. I had read several books on the attributes of God and have studied the topic as well, so I was reluctant to read another book on the topic.

But, I got the book solely on my friend's recommendation, because I value her opinion. I must say I am very glad I did. First off, Tozer is a very gifted writer. He writes about very thought provoking topics, yet does so in understanding ways. He is extremely insightful and brought up some things I have never thought about. Plus, he answered some questions I have had for decades.

The book is about more than common ideas and concepts on the attributes of God. You know the basics - God is all knowing, omnipresent, omnipowerful. Tozer goes way beyond that. And, rightly so. One insightful thing Tozer mentioned was that a society will never rise above its concept of God. I had never thought about that, but once stated it makes perfect sense. The book is full of such jewels.

I can't say enough good things about Tozer. Since finding him I have shared other of his books with friends and they are impressed as well. It is said that Tozer has on his tombstone simply "A Man of God". No truer words were ever written.

Get this book, you won't be sorry!
