All of us are at the mercy of our ideas, and nowhere is this more true than our ideas about God. The problem is, many of our ideas are wrong. Not entirely wrong, but wrong enough to form our souls in detrimental and disheartening ways. This book is a profound yet practical guide to shifting our communion with God in light of what he actually says and reveals about himself in Exodus 34:6-8. This one shif has the potential to radically alter how you understand yourself and connect with God-not as a doctrine, but as a relational being who responds to you in an elastic, back-and-forth way. After all, the heart of apprenticeship to Jesus is becoming more like God every day. And, in order to be more fully formed into that image and likeness, we need a better understanding of God on his own terms. The process of formation begins with the practice of contemplation- and as we focus our reflection on the true nature of God, we slowly become what we behold.
