How To Marvel At Your Maker

At the deepest level, the chief reason we are all here is to glorify and enjoy God. But for many people, God remains a vague, wispy, cloud of cosmic kindness, a super-sized projection of ourselves into the sky, or an impossible-to-please killjoy. But who is God, really? Who is this being we should thank for our next breath? Who has He revealed himself to be in His Word?

Questions like these inspire some to deep dive into theology. They emerge with a sophisticated new vocabulary, a head full of syllogisms, and a God who seems more like an abstract x at the end of a logical equation than the living, moving, affectionate God of Scripture. In Revering God, bestselling author Thaddeus Williams invites you to meet the real, living God, offering profound insight into God’s attributes and practical ways to live a God-centered life, bridging the gap between abstract theology and awe-inspired devotion.

Deep Theology Meets Real Life

Marvel at our Maker, increasingly freed from the burden of taking ourselves too seriously.
Embrace the reliable, enjoyable, victorious, eternally loving, redemptive, and expressive God of the Bible in a way that brings not only intellectual clarity but also real, enduring life- change.
Hear how God’s attributes have shaped the personal lives of some of today’s brightest Christian minds, including Michael Horton, Joni Eareckson Tada, John Perkins, and more.

What People Are Saying

“With the creativity and communication skills that we have come to expect from Thaddeus Williams, this outstanding, engaging, and interactive volume guides readers to think deeply about the greatness and grace of God in fresh and thoughtful ways.”
David S. Dockery
David S. DockeryPresident, Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary
“Deftly weaving timely cultural analysis with timeless theological truth, the book is a valuable reminder to the contemporary church: reverence to God is a far more pressing priority than relevance to the culture."
Brett McCracken

The Wisdom Pyramid: Feeding Your Soul in a Post-Truth World
"Thaddeus Williams doesn’t just want us to know God; he wants us to love him. In this book, he skillfully works towards that goal by weaving together theology, apologetics, and personal accounts of seasoned Christians in a way that is both emotionally satisfying and intensely practical. The result is a multifaceted presentation of our infinitely deep, loving, wise, gracious, creative, awe-inspiring God that moved me to worship."
Amy K. Hall
Amy K. Hallwriter, editor, and podcaster at Stand to Reason
“Combining great writing with great theology, Williams uses everything from The Joker to the Sistine chapel to a civil rights hero to a Rolling Saint to reveal the true nature and aims of God. Guiding readers through readings, rhythms, reflections, repentance and resources, the inevitable result is a renewed reverence for the Great Seeker.”

MEET THE AUTHOR

Thaddeus J. Williams

Thaddeus Williams, PhD, serves as associate professor of theology for Biola University. He is the author of many books, including Confronting Injustice without Compromising Truth and Don’t Follow Your Heart. He resides in Southern California with his wife and four kids. Full Bio

"What could be more worthwhile than seeking to better understand and more deeply enjoy our Creator? There is a whole lot of good systematic theology being done in recent years, especially theology proper, unpacking the divine attributes (e.g., Frame, Sanders, Barrett, Feinberg, the retrieval of Bavinck with Sutano and Eglington, and many more). If we’re not careful, we run the risk of reducing God to a series of abstract propositions. We end up with a split church with many experiencing only a theologically superficial grasp of God but deep emotion and others experiencing a theologically profound understanding but having cobwebs in their hearts. I wanted to write a book, in the tradition of Packer’s classic Knowing God, that seeks to integrate the whole person—head, heart, and hands—into a state of reverence for God."
