Portrait of God
Rediscovering the Attributes of God through the Stories of His People
About This Book
Have you been struggling to see God lately? This beautiful weaving of biblical reflection and true stories from Jesus-followers turns our gaze again to the One who made us, loves us, and will never leave us. Each chapter in Portrait of God explores an attribute of God through a person in church history who radically experienced His nature. Here you'll discover:
- Faith: how an all-powerful God worked miracles in the life of Kathryn Kuhlman,
- Holiness: what Augustine of Hippo's life in a secular world teaches us about God,
- Compassion: how William and Catherine Booth's service to others radiated God's love,
- And more.
Portrait of God includes a foreword from Michael W. Smith, thought-provoking questions, and a list of further reading about each faith leader. As author Jack Mooring writes, "The Christian life is less about learning and more about remembering." When our spiritual life feels like a roller coaster, true stories of faithful Christians help us rediscover our wonder about the unchanging character of our Creator.
