James I. Packer says of the devotional life: "To rush to God randomly babbling about what is on our mind at the moment, with no pause to realize his greatness and grace and our own sinfulness and smallness, is at once to dishonor him and to make shallow our own fellowship with him." Dr. Packer has taught generations of Christians how to know God better. Now he helps us draw closer to God each day with insightful readings. Focusing on what it means to be a part of the family of God, these meditations will lead you into the Father's presence trough Scripture, prayer, and practical wisdom.

Packer presents the case for reliability of the Bible and urges us to return with open hearts to reading God's word, and to discovering its overwhelming power in our lives.This challenging sequel to Knowing God is a great resource for the Christian journey.

If we spend the rest of our lives at it, there will still be more to comprehend. But the marvel of it is that God's riches are opened up to us to explore.' J. I. PackerJoin J. I.
