Synopsis

Do you long for an intimate relationship with your Creator, but He seems elusive? Perhaps it is because something utterly essential is missing—the fear of the Lord. Don’t let this frighten you. Fearing God is very different than being afraid of God. It’s the key to everything.Holy Fear is not a topic you’ll hear much about these days. But if you want to build a faith that stands strong through troubled times, you cannot afford to ignore this book.In The Awe of God, John Bevere invites you to take a fresh look at what it means to work out your salvation with fear and trembling. This healthy, holy, and largely forgotten virtue is the uncommon path to a more fulfilled and fruitful spiritual life. In this book you will see why godly fear is the foundation of:Wisdom, understanding, and knowledgeForesight, clarity, and divine directionMaturity and conformity to the image of Jesus ChristBuilding an eternal legacyConfidence, fearlessness, and securityFreedom from the fear of man as all lesser fears are eclipsed If you look at the men and women in Scripture, the ones who lived and finish well all have one thing in common: they are marked by holy fear.The Awe of God was designed to be read slowly and intentionally, given its devotional format. At the end of each of the 42 chapters are five tools to help you deepen your understanding and apply what the Spirit of God is teaching you. With this compelling and convicting message, you can experience a revival in your relationship with God, whether you’re new to following Him or have walked with Him for most of your life.

This is a deep book and worth taking your time reading and studying through. After reading the first few chapters I paused so I could soak it all in.

An excellent encapsulation of the major topics John has preached on for the last 40 years.

This is such a timely book. For years, we have been steeped in teachings regarding our identity in Christ. And that topic is indeed an important one!
