Book overview
During a train trip from Chicago to Texas in the late 1940s, A.W. Tozer began to write "The Pursuit of God." He wrote all night, and when the train arrived at his destination, the rough draft was done. The depth of this book has made it an enduring favorite. Readers cannot help but hear the voice of God calling them to a deeper relationship with Him while reading this amazing classic. From beginning to end, each page in "The Pursuit of God" is an impassioned plea for the reader to abandon "comfortable Christianity" in order to truly know God as He desires to be known. This is the most important and foundational book of the Christian faith written by a man who wore holes in the knees of his pants from praying. "The Pursuit of God" challenges the reader to consider their own faith in Christ, and what they should be doing with that faith, in virtually every chapter. The chapter entitled "The Blessedness of Possessing Nothing" should be required reading for anyone confessing Christ as their Lord. If you have not done so already, please read this book. Your life, and the lives of those you share this book with, will be forever enriched.
