About the author

Aiden Wilson Tozer was an American evangelical pastor, speaker, writer, and editor. After coming to Christ at the age of seventeen, Tozer found his way into the Christian & Missionary Alliance denomination where he served for over forty years. In 1950, he was appointed by the denomination's General Council to be the editor of "The Alliance Witness" (now "Alliance Life").

Born into poverty in western Pennsylvania in 1897, Tozer died in May 1963 a self-educated man who had taught himself what he missed in high school and college due to his home situation. Though he wrote many books, two of them, "The Pursuit of God" and "The Knowledge of the Holy" are widely considered to be classics.

A.W. Tozer and his wife, Ada Cecelia Pfautz, had seven children, six boys and one girl.

Reviews

[Christopher-James Neethling · Rating 5 out of 5]

A Book that still speaks loudly and prophetically. A book that challenges us to go back to the fundamental characteristics of what it means to be a Christian. This book resonates loudly and I think all who wish to do well would do well in reading this book!

[Edward Hodge · Rating 5 out of 5]

A challenge to our "made for prime time faith". It's time for the church to get back to being serious with the gospel of Jesus.
