Book Description
Sometimes we ask What is God’s will for my life? when we should really be asking Who should I be? The Bible has an answer: Be like the very image of God. By exploring ten characteristics of who God is—holy, loving, just, good, merciful, gracious, faithful, patient, truthful, and wise—this book helps us understand who God intends for us to be. Through Christ, the perfect reflection of the image of God, we will discover how God’s own attributes impact how we live, leading to freedom and purpose as we follow his will and are conformed to his image.

Book Description
This book is a series of short essays seeking to answer life's most enduring question: Does God exist? I have attempted to craft a book that is well researched (I have been conducting this research for over 30 years) but also easy to read and understand. Each essay can be read in less than 10 minutes. In the end it is important to know whether God exists or He does not exist. There is no third option. What I am seeking to do in this book is to determine which of these beliefs is true and which one is not.

None Like Him
Author: Jen Wilkin
Publisher: Crossway
ISBN: 1433549867
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 141
Book Description
Human beings were created to reflect the image of God—but only to a limited extent. Although we share important attributes with God (love, mercy, compassion, etc.), there are other qualities that only God possesses, such as unlimited power, knowledge, and authority. At the root of all sin is our rebellious desire to be like God in such ways—a desire that first manifested itself in the garden of Eden. In None Like Him, Jen Wilkin leads us on a journey to discover ten ways God is different from us—and why that’s a good thing. In the process, she highlights the joy of seeing our limited selves in relation to a limitless God, and how such a realization frees us from striving to be more than we were created to be.

The Character of God in the Book of Genesis
Author:
Publisher: Westminster John Knox Press
ISBN: 9780664223601
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 308
Book Description
By using recent developments in literary theory, W. Lee Humphreys uses Genesis to show how God functions as a character in the Genesis narrative. Very creatively, Humphreys explores the coherence and consistency of God as a character, the way in which God's character changes and develops throughout the narrative, and how giving attention to the character of God enriches our experience of reading Genesis.

Reflections on the Bible
Author: Dietrich Bonhoeffer
Publisher: Hendrickson Publishers
ISBN: 156563988X
Category : Bible
Languages : en
Pages : 125
Book Description
What caused Dietrich Bonhoeffer-- a well-educated and philosophical pastor from Berlin-- to risk his reputation, his freedom, and finally his life to stand with others against the brutality of the Nazis? In this special collection of his writings, Bonhoeffer reveals his thoughts and struggles as he reflects on the Bible. This unique collection includes excerpts from Bonhoeffer's letters, meditations, expositions, sermons, lectures, and seminar papers-- with topics stretching from his thematic study of the historical critical method to his study of selected portions of Psalms 119, which he regarded "as the crown of theological life." Bonhoeffer's statements about the Bible-- and his struggle with those statements-- remain remarkably relevant today for individuals and churches, for Christians and non-Christians. He still challenges us to decide "whether we are willing to trust the word of the Bible or not."--Back of the book.

Pages : 171
Book Description
God created within each of us something he delights in: a precious, beautiful refl ective jewel that he values and adores; an object for his desire. In his children, he sees the refl ection of his own perfect character. He loves us despite our perceived inadequacies. He wants us to love him back, to recognise him and to know him intimately, so that we can distinguish his voice, his leading, his presence and his heart. As we look to God we see a refl ection of our selves, we see our perfection in him. Everything that God is, we are in his image. To know God, we need personal revelations of his character. Knowing God is the beginning to self-discovery.'
