Recommendation: The Pursuit of God

Over the years, there have been a few books that have had a lasting and real impact on my heart. Out of all of those, none have had a larger impact that A.W. Tozer's The Pursuit of God.

Listen to Tozer's reason for writing this book:

"In this hour of all-but-universal darkness one cheering gleam appears: within the fold of conservative Christianity there are to be found increasing numbers of persons whose religious lives are marked by a growing hunger after God Himself. They are eager for spiritual realities and will not be put off with words, nor will they be content with correct 'interpretations' of truth. They are athirst for God, and they will not be satisfied till they have drunk deep at the Fountain of Living Water.

This book is a modest attempt to aid God's hungry children so to find Him. Nothing here is new except in the sense that it is a discovery which my own heart has made of spiritual realities most delightful and wonderful to me. Others before me have gone much farther into these holy mysteries than I have done, but if my fire is not large it is yet real, and there may be those who can light their candle at its flame."

I can say that, in seasons of spiritual coldness, my fire has been rekindled by reading Tozer's masterful work. As you begin 2018, let me recommend that you do so by stopping to consider the glory of pursuing God with all your heart this year. I guarantee you will benefit from it.
