What on Earth is Glory?: A Practical Approach to a Glory-Filled Life

A Glory-You-Can-Touch Book!

“This just might be the most encouraging book you’ll ever read.” —Bill Johnson, Pastor, Bethel Church, Redding, CA

“Shows you in a readable and practical way how to bring glory to God in your own life here on earth.” —RT Kendall, Former Minister, Westminster Chapel, London

“Now my head is spinning with excitement as I try to assess its potentially massive effect on the world in the next years, for decades to come.” —Jack Taylor, President, Dimensions Ministries, Melbourne, FL

“For the earth will be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the Lord, as the waters cover the sea" (Habakkuk 2:14 NIV).

Preachers often quote this majestic promise in describing the consummation of history, the restoration of all things at the end of time. But few seek to uncover the passion of God in this promise: He wants us to know His glory, and He wants us to know it here on earth.

What On Earth Is Glory? is one man's journey into this desire of God. From Mt. Sinai to the Cross, from a solitary confinement cell to the snowboarding slopes of Mammoth Lakes, from fathers and mothers to sons and daughters, from time to eternity, Paul Manwaring traces the revelation of God's glory, uncovering the patterns of His divine design and purpose in all things, and inviting others to join him in making the audacious request Moses made millennia ago: "Show me Your glory."
