Synopsis
God is often described as all-knowing, all-loving, and all-powerful. But are there other traits that we overlook? What is God really like? Can we truly put his eternal attributes into words? And how does the way we describe God affect our relationship with him?
Best-selling author and speaker Chip Ingram helps readers answer these questions and more in this fascinating study of seven attributes of God. With engaging insight, Ingram guides readers through a challenging but accessible study of God's goodness, sovereignty, holiness, wisdom, justice, love, and faithfulness.
Inspiring and perceptive, God: As He Longs for You to See Him may forever change the way readers see their Creator, even as it shows how their view of him influences every decision in their lives.

Reviews
In this down-to-earth exercise in evangelical theology, Ingram, a radio show host and CEO of the Atlanta-based organization Walk Through the Bible, makes the case that understanding the character of God as He reveals Himself is the most important task facing new Christians and seasoned believers alike. Noting that his analysis is meant to be devotional and practical rather than comprehensive, Ingram focuses on seven traits attributed to God: goodness, sovereignty, holiness, wisdom, justice, love and faithfulness. Although Ingram relies on the work of evangelical heavyweights like C.S. Lewis and A.W. Tozer to make his points, his primary sources in answering questions about such conundrums as why God allows suffering or the nature of Christ's sacrificial atonement for sin are the Old and New Testaments. One caveat: though Ingram's style is accessible and often engaging, his methodical and rather pedagogical style may narrow his potential audience to readers comfortable with the traditional language of conservative apologetics. Suitable for personal or group study, the end of each chapter on God's attributes includes an inspirational quotation, a prayer and a devotional anecdote.
