Knowing God
por J. I. Packer · 286 páginas · Inglés
A modern classic on the doctrine of God that combines theological rigor with pastoral warmth, exploring who God is and how knowing Him transforms the Christian life.
Grown out of a series of articles for a British Christian magazine, this book became in 1973 one of the most widely read classics of twentieth-century evangelicalism. Packer argues that knowing about God and knowing God are different things, and that only the latter truly transforms a life.
With sections devoted to God's character, his covenant, his wrath, and his mercy, the book combines theological precision with unusual pastoral warmth, and has introduced generations of readers to a doctrine of God that is both robust and deeply practical.

Knowing God is one of the best books I have ever read.
Knowing God is a masterpiece by a master theologian. It serves as a wake-up call for those who are asleep to the majesty of God.
A hundred years from now only a handful of books written today will still be widely read and accepted as Christian classics. Dr. James I. Packer's Knowing God may well prove to be one of them.
