God does not hide. He is not silent or absent. In fact, the God of the universe has gone to great lengths to make himself known to us. While we might not physically see His face or hear His voice, we can always be assured that He is present -- and actively revealing Himself to us. Glory How the Invisible God Makes Himself Known is about learning to hear and see God in our everyday lives, once we learn how to listen and where to look. Join author and speaker David Nasser on a journey to find the glory of God revealed in YOUR life.
Excellent devotional! Easy to read and thought-provoking, and I really like the journaling pages. Definitely recommend for anyone who wants to draw nearer to God.
It was an easy read (daily devotional) with familiar 'lessons'. Many of its stories could be viewed as what Jon Acuff calls, "Jesus Jukes", pooping on someone else's parade by suddenly bringing Jesus into a picture. From crowds gathering to get a glimpse of Tiger Woods to the story in Luke (5:17-20) about friends helping their crippled friend to get healed by Jesus. Or the time the author gave a wrong phone number to a 'stalker-like' fan when Jesus had a special heart for the lonely. The least he could is to be honest and say, 'I'm not ready to give out personal number'. Or how he and his wife waited a long time to witness England's queen's march to the story of John the Baptist's prophecy on Jesus's crucifixion and second coming.
None of its contents was provoking or stimulating. However, it doesn't hurt to retold some important concepts as to learn about what a faithful fellow's journey might look like.
Glory Revealed is very honest, thought-provoking, and challenging. It can be read straight through, or used as a daily-devotional book. I really appreciated the author's vulnerability and how he used examples from his own life to demonstrate God's glory, especially through his own weakness. The personal and church challenges presented are very useful and much needed in our society. I will definitely revisit this book in the future.
This book was a very easy read for me. It is set up in very short chapters, that the reader is encouraged to chew on one at a time. I found this very helpful, as I tend to just get going on a book so fast that I don't take the time to really learn from it. The chapters are filled with short stories that do a great job of hammering the point home on what the author is trying to get across.
This was a great book with space to journal how God is currently revealing Himself to you. You could easily treat it as an interactive devotional. It's an enjoyable yet challenging read as Nasser uses practical stories to relate how God, although invisible to the eye, is continually revealing himself to us through everyday occurances.
