About this eBook

Sometimes the voices that speak most clearly in the present are those that echo from the past. So it is in this Christian classic by the late pastor and evangelist A. W. Tozer.

In The Pursuit of God, Tozer brings the mystics to bear on modern spirituality, grieving the hustle and bustle and calling for a slow, steady gaze upon God. With prophetic vigor and flowing prose, he urges us to replace low thoughts of God with lofty ones, to quiet our lives so we can know God’s presence. He reminds us that life apart from God is really no life at all. 

Tozer's bestseller, this book has been called "one of the all-time most inspirational books" by a panel of Christian magazine writers. And with this study guide, ideal for group or individual use, reflection and discussion questions will help you internalize the content and apply it to your life.

Ratings and reviews

One of the most powerful books I have ever read (and reread) . It explores the inter-relationship between God and His particular creation. It is a mutual desire that is open from God's point of view. Man must pursue it literally on his/her knees. This Godly man has much to say to any serious. Christian. The book is a s potent as CS Lewis's Mere Christianity and Lloyd-Jones Studies on the Sermon on the Mount, both worth the time as well. Tozer is quoted with good reason by many great pastors today
