366 Glimpses of God: Getting to Know the God Who Knows You - ISBN 978-1931820752
By Sharon Norris Elliot (ABM Publications November 30, 2016)
In his classic work Knowing God, Christian theologian J. I. Packer astutely asks, “What makes life worthwhile is having a big enough objective, something which catches our imagination and lays hold of our allegiance, and this the Christian has in a way that no other person has. For what higher, more exalted, and more compelling goal can there be than to know God?” Indeed. Life is worthwhile and our imagination is captured by the fascination we experience upon gaining familiarity with our eternal, all-encompassing, omniscient God. Just to embark upon the journey itself gives our very existence new meaning. This is the lofty goal of the book you hold in your hands. Author Sharon Norris Elliott invites you to become a part of a movement of the faithful who insist upon growing closer to God through gaining a deeper knowledge of Him. By glimpsing a tiny bit of His glory every day, you will: Discover something amazing about God every day Increase your understanding of Scripture in general Enjoy engaging contemporary stories that point out God’s attributes Be encouraged in your walk with the God Be challenged to make necessary, positive changes Develop a new love for the Bible Again, J. I. Packer seems to speak directly to Elliott’s aim for her readers. “There is no peace like the peace of those whose minds are possessed with full assurance that they have known God, and God has known them, and that this relationship guarantees God’s favor to them in life, through death and on for ever.” Join the movement and get to know the God who already knows you by taking 366 glimpses of God.
