Filled with theological beauty that lives where we all live, this book will cause you to love your Lord more earnestly, to worship him more deeply, and to serve him more joyfully.

This book by J. I. Packer helps us to do just that. Short chapters (originally magazine articles) are arranged to draw us to study more closely various aspects of God’s nature and character. What could be more edifying? Over the last fifty years, I have found countless people who have been informed, encouraged, and brought to worship by the pages of this book. I know I have been, and pray that you will be, too.”\u003cbr\u003e—Mark Dever, Pastor, Capitol Hill Baptist Church, Washington, DC\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“There are very few books that communicate such glorious truth—and communicate it as succinctly and as well—as \u003cem\u003eKnowing God\u003c\/em\u003e.
