"As the heart panteth after the water brooks, so panteth my soul after thee, O God." This thirst for an intimate relationship with God, claims A.W.

Reviews for The Pursuit of God
501 ratings4 reviews
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Perhaps the best book of its genre that I have ever read! If you are a Believer, Tozar cuts to the chase as to the what, why, and how of your relationship with God. This book is not a one-time read, but instead should be treated and read at least monthly as a foundational reminder and how-to of the beauty of a personal relationship with God. Warning: This book will change your life!
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5The stark beauty of this author's words leave me breathless every time I sit down with this book. Each journey through it's pages shows me something new, some bit that helps me focus my own heart and mind just a little more sharply. Not a book I'd ever loan out, but one I DO highly recommend.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Another of the great Christian books. Read and pray.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Tozer's call to a life drenched in Christ is one of the best there is. You can clearly see his passion and love in every line. It is a call back to pure Scripture and love, not tricks and power of will. The book is worthwhile to new Christians for an idea of the promises of what is to come, and also old Christians who simply want to meditate on the wonders of God.
