You are chosen, loved, prized, wanted, and believed in by a perfect Father. In Seeing God as a Perfect Father, Louie Giglio invites us to experience God in a life-changing as a perfect Father who wants you to live under the waterfall of His blessing.
How you view God informs everything about who you are and who you're becoming. In this updated and retitled edition of the national bestseller Not Forsaken, Louie Giglio challenges our common perceptions of who God is and points us to know Him as a heavenly Father who is not absent or ambivalent but is available and ready to embrace us with His approval and blessing.

When we take hold of the truth that God has spanned heaven and earth to reach us, we will no longer be defined by our pasts but by the love of a perfect heavenly Father. When we rightly see God's character, we rightly see that we are loved, pursued, and secured by the Creator of the universe.
Giglio is a big name, but I had never read anything by him before. This book was previously released under a different title, Not Forgotten, but rebranded and released under this title.
The content is good. At some points, I thought he was going to give the reader some practical steps or journaling assignments (which I thought would be helpful - and make me sweat!) but he didn't quite get around to practical application, which is a shame.
There is a lot of truth in this book. I was blessed to read it. Just think it could have gone a lot further as far as practical discipleship and next steps.
This book spoke volumes to me. Anyone who has struggled in their relationship with their dad, will greatly benefit from this book. May God open the eyes and heart to those who read this book.
Good message. Would recommend for beginners. Fundamentally very important and made me reflect on how God is a truly perfect Father and whilst my earthly Father is a helpful reference, God is so much more.
