Portrait of God - by Jack Anthony Mooring (Paperback)

About the Book

Portrait of God is an engaging guidebook for modern-day believers that uses the stories of influential Christian figures--such as C. S. Lewis, St. Augustine, and William and Catherine Booth--to help Christians today find stability in their faith in a changing world.

Book Synopsis

Have you been struggling to see God lately? This beautiful weaving of biblical reflection and true stories from Jesus-followers turns our gaze again to the One who made us, loves us, and will never leave us. Each chapter in Portrait of God explores an attribute of God through a person in church history who radically experienced His nature. Here you'll discover:

• Faith: how an all-powerful God worked miracles in the life of Kathryn Kuhlman,
• Holiness: what Augustine of Hippo's life in a secular world teaches us about God,
• Compassion: how William and Catherine Booth's service to others radiated God's love,
• And more.

Portrait of God includes a foreword from Michael W. Smith, thought-provoking questions, and a list of further reading about each faith leader. As author Jack Mooring writes, "The Christian life is less about learning and more about remembering." When our spiritual life feels like a roller coaster, true stories of faithful Christians help us rediscover our wonder about the unchanging character of our Creator.
