The Hunger for Significance: Seeing the Image of God in Man
Publisher's Description
Dr. Sproul's classic gets to the heart of humanity's search for personal worth. As he sheds light on daily obstacles to dignity — in home, school, hospital, prison, church, and workplace — Dr. Sproul points us to new ways of loving and serving one another.
"The rigorous pursuit of our day," writes Sproul, "is the search for dignity and personal worth . . . The search for dignity is a titanic struggle, an epic adventure, prodded by a pain that will not go away. Modern man has an aching void." Our search must go beyond the trivial to the ultimate questions of our worth as human beings. We must seek our roots, our origin, and our destiny. The Hunger for Significance guides us in this search, pointing us to the One who alone can provide answers that quench our thirst.

“As Dr. Sproul unpacks the powerful and biblical axiom of human dignity, he shows the reader how to effectively ascribe life-worth to the people we encounter every day. In an age of identity politics where the weak and vulnerable are forgotten, The Hunger for Significance is a must-read!”

“This is classic R.C. Sproul. It is precisely the book the church needs to help us to rightly grasp the dignity and purpose of each and every human being, all image bearers of our holy, loving, and gracious God.”
Buck Parsons
Senior Pastor, Saint Andrew’s Chapel, Sanford, Florida
“In this penetrating analysis, R.C. Sproul explores our search for meaning in a variety of circumstances and places. We were created in God’s image to live in communion with our Creator and under his Lordship. Sproul uses his keen mind to teach us how and why we all want our lives to count. This book is a must-read for everyone: pastors, church leaders, and laypeople.”
Miguel Núñez
Pastor Titular, Iglesia Bautista Internacional, Dominican Republic
“It takes someone who so profoundly wrestled with the question Who is God? to help us so clearly and cogently with the question Who am I? In our current moment of identity confusion, chaos, and crisis, this new edition is urgently needed. With biblical wisdom, theological maturity, and generous anecdotes, Dr. Sproul covers every aspect of our lives, painting the portrait of true human dignity.”
Stephen J. Nichols
President, Reformation Bible College
