Synopsis

Perhaps you have prayed for years and still wonder whom you are addressing. Perhaps the Bible is new to you, or your own tradition has left questions you have found hard to put into words. This book is for you, wherever you are starting from.

In plain language, The God You Seek follows the Bible’s own account of God: his personal name, Jehovah; his character; the place of Jesus Christ, his Son; the Kingdom Jesus taught people to pray for; and the hope the Bible holds out for the earth and for those who have died. It also looks at prayer, worship, hard times, and how any religious community can be fairly examined against the Bible.

Every chapter opens with the question it answers, uses everyday examples, and closes with key points and questions to think about. The book states its own understanding openly, respects readers of every background, and invites you to check each passage for yourself.
