We've just begun reading our next book, Knowing God, a classic by J. I. Packer, his best-known work, having sold over 1,000,000 copies in North America alone. First published in 1973, and has been reprinted several times. In 2006, the influential evangelical magazine Christianity Today listed it as 5th on their list of "The Top 50 Books That Have Shaped Evangelicals". In the book, Packer explores the character of God as revealed in the Bible, and correct Christian responses to it, with chapters on such topics as God's love, grace, majesty and wrath. "Once you become aware that the main business that you are here for is to know God, most of life's problems fall into place of their own accord." - J. I. Packer. Books we've completed since 2015:
