Transformed by God’s Nature

 
 

“How do I know that God is good when my life is not?” 

When life is painful, confusing, and unpredictable, God’s unchanging character can be a relief—if you know Him for who He has revealed Himself to be. But if your understanding is inaccurate, or if you prefer to study only some of His attributes, then suffering can rock your faith in the God you thought you knew. 

Transformed by God’s Nature is a 23-week study on God’s character, written to help you understand what God’s character means in the midst of suffering. Small daily readings communicate Biblical information through words, images, and action steps that move you closer to knowing God day by day. Over the course of the book, you will study glimpses of God’s infinite nature, always going back to Scripture for the truth that God has shared about Himself. Short daily readings follow a simple structure: 

•       passages from Scripture

•       further insight and study

•       action steps 

Each week focuses on one of God’s attributes. At every turn, artistic renderings of His creation extend the message and opportunity to reflect. Transformed by God’s Nature is uniquely crafted through study of God’s authoritative Word and recognition of how He shows Himself in Creation—honoring two key ways God has chosen to reveal himself. Action steps give you further opportunity to pause and worship, as well as to grow in resemblance to Jesus Christ in the attributes He shares with us. 

Whether suffering has led you to question God’s goodness, love, and justice or you are simply seeking to better know Him, Transformed by God’s Nature will point you toward the answers you crave through beautiful illustrations and Biblical truth. Join the journey to know and worship God for who He is, finding hope and transformation along the way.
