The God We Do Not Know
Ebook
Overview
God is alive with wonder, a soul-filling conflagration of improbable truth. He loves us as He detonates our spiritual assumptions, turning our religious worlds upside down. In The God We Do Not Know, we will attempt to gain insight into a God who demolishes us, it seems, at every turn. He possesses mind-bending intelligence, creativity, power, and love. Therefore, if we truly want to know Him, His truths will inevitably lead us into rough, unpredictable--but wondrous--terrain. We must investigate these truths; be stormed, shattered, and swept away, in love, by them. At times this journey is spiny and steep but, in every case, brimming with joy, with compassion, with wonder.
”Jim Thomson is a man of faith and vision. This book comes out
of his own experience of faith in God. It is an eye-opener to the
world which presents a positive message that great and small things
are equal in the eyes of the Lord, and that even with small things,
He can work great miracles. The book encourages all its readers to
stay committed and motivated even when they think they mean
nothing."
--Thomas Kutty, Pastor, Bangalore Foursquare Church, India
“In our counseling ministry many people discover it is their view
of God, and not God Himself, who has failed them. In The God We
Do Not Know, Thomson invites Christians to pause and consider
whether the God they profess to know is the God of the Bible, or
simply a culturally informed idol. This is a great read for anyone
who thinks Christianity has failed them."
--Rick Peterson, Co-founder and President, The Center for Biblical
Recovery
"This book brings us into the presence of a loving, gracious God,
who works in mysterious ways to accomplish his plans in our life
and in the world."
--John Joseph, Pastor; General Superintendent, Church of the
Foursquare Gospel, India
"In The God We Do Not Know, Jim Thomson introduces us
to aspects of God’s heart, character, and ways that are
counter-intuitive. He exposes us to the God who is not what we
would expect, a God who surprises us with lowliness and
insignificance but who is completely powerful, perfect, and
loving. Here is a deeply biblical study about the God who
wants to change your life. Enjoy the discoveries
ahead!"
--George Butron, Missionary; Pastor
