‘Delighting in God’ by AW Tozer, an American Christian pastor, author, magazine editor, and spiritual mentor, offers understanding towards your life's purpose by better understanding God. It is the message Tozer intended to be the follow-up to “The Knowledge of the Holy.” He demonstrates how the attributes of God, those things God has revealed about himself, are a way to understand the Christian life of worship and service. Because we were created in the image of God, to understand who we are, we need to understand who God is and allow His character and nature to be reflected through us.
We are here to serve and adore Him, and we can only fulfill that role by acknowledging who He is. This is the essence of the Christian life and the source of all our fulfillment, joy, and comfort.
“Unless we get to know what God is like, unless we know God, we will accept all the superficial nonsense that passes for Christianity today. Our perception of God determines our perception of worship.” ― A.W. Tozer, Delighting in God
“The prevailing condition among Christians today, as I see it, is that there is a sense of God’s absence among us. Many believe in God. Many worship God and even sing about Him. But it is almost as if He is not there. This has brought Christianity down below any other religion in the world.” ― A.W. Tozer, Delighting in God.
