The Names of God

Rating:
Summary: author is chatty
Review: The clear scripture would be helpful if the author would focus more upon that. It seems he strays, and avoids staying with scripture for revealation/meaning. This changes the book into a story more about him (author) than God. It is his experiences about God with his own personal filter absorbing most of the text. I hoped for a book fully about God, revealing the richness of His vast nature/character. I hope the author makes more room for God in his personal life than he does in this book.

Summary: a guide to the character of God
Review: This book provides a thorough biblical treatment of thirteen of the key names of God. It reads like a devotional but provides outstanding insight into the purpose behind the revelation of each name. This book has helped me to understand God's progressive revelation. It has enhanced my prayer life and I highly recommend it to every reader.

Review: This is a great little book for everyone's personal library, and an excellent source for a Sunday school or sermon series. The chapter on the Holiness of God is particularly good.
