Your God is too small

This forty-year-old Christian classic and bestseller is a study group favorite; this book challenges readers' conventional views about God and encourages them to search for a meaningful redefinition of a higher power that is relevant to contemporary existence. Your God is Too Small is a groundbreaking work of faith, which challenges the constraints of traditional religion. In his discussion of God, author J.B. Phillips encourages Christians to redefine their understanding of a creator without labels or earthly constraints and instead search for a meaningful concept of God. Phillips explains that the trouble facing many of us today is that we have not found a God big enough for our modern needs. In a world where our experience of life has grown in myriad directions and our mental horizons have been expanded to the point of bewilderment by world events and scientific discoveries, our ideas of God have remained largely static. This inspirational work tackles tough topics and inspires readers to reevaluate and connect more deeply with a God that is relevant to current experience and big enough to command respect and admiration.

  • "The author explains that the problem many of us face today is that we have not found a God who "fits" our modern needs. Many people are living without faith, mainly because they have never found a God "big" enough to account for the mysteries of life and death. As a result, those who want to believe may find that they are hindered by static, childish views of God -- a God who cannot satisfy their adult expectations. He explores several of these destructive concepts of God which are narrow and inadequate, and points out constructive images of God that fit in with our modern needs."
