Knowing the living God,

If a book can be a discussion, here is one that is! And it is lively and vital’ “Cold theology” is replaced by using current religious thought a springboard from which to launch into the ways by which God is known.

After a God who is knowable is presented, the author proceeds to show him as one who loves each of us as his children. He also considers how and why God will lead each of us who are willing to follow him.

Knowing the Living God challenges the sincere reader to seek better ways of Christian witnessing in meaningful worship and in effective self-fulfilling service to others.

Dr. Phillips, the much loved and highly respected editor of Vital Christianity has over the years developed an interesting and imposing perspective upon which to base this volume. As a young man he was awarded undergraduate degrees from both San Diego State College, California, and Anderson College in Indiana. He then attended the School of Religion at Butler University in Indianapolis, Indiana where he earned the B.D and M.A. degrees. Later he received the honorary D.D. degree from Anderson College, Anderson, Indiana.

Dr. Phillips is a world traveler, including behind the Iron Curtain where he was permitted to talk with Christian leaders of that area. Speaking engagements and writing also have involved him in dialogues and confrontations with seekers for truth in all walks of life.

Frequent illustrations from this background are used to hold attention and strongly undergird this fresh and readable book.
