Godology Reviews
by on February 02, 2009
The strangest thing about writing a book about God is that there is so much I should have said about Him that I didn’t. I suppose no one can truly condense the entirety of God into 180 pages. And if we could, perhaps we ourselves would be God. But looking at Godology (when it is too late to make any editorial revisions), I am truly aware that at best Christian writers must simply abandon their work in hopes that someone else will pick up where we left off. There is always one more word, one more sentence, one more page.
Nevertheless, thanks to all of you who have spread the word about this book. Here is a review that was recently posted about the book.
Taken from http://epangelia.blogspot.com.
“Christian George has written Doctrine of God in a language which is fresh, contemporary and very accessible to this generation of younger evangelicals and non-christians alike. It is a mini Doctrine of God primarily centering around the attributes of God. He covers a wide range of attributes from the Unity of God to the Eternality of God.He is an excellent writer.
I sat down and read 5 chapters of his book the other day at Barnes and Noble before I got distracted by a phone call. In his chapter “Chocolate for the Soul”, George deals with the Holiness of God. He says, “I wrote this chapter barefoot. Not because my Chacos were dirty, but because I am dirty. To stand before God’s holiness and try to condense it into twelve pages- well, that’s an impossible and rather dangerous thing to do.”
The thing I like about this book is that Christian George moves the reader from theology to doxology and practical application of the truths being considered. The later portion of each chapter deals with how to appropriate the truth he has just described. The book is not just a doctrine of God it has to do with the spiritual disciplines of the Christian life. It’s fesh, engaging and helpful all at the same time. Thanks Christian.”
