Packer on the Christian Life: Knowing God in Christ, Walking by the Spirit (Theologians on the Christian Life)
J. I. Packer is widely recognized as a pillar of 20th-century evangelicalism and has had a profound impact on millions of Christians living today.

In this soul-stirring book, well-known pastor Sam Storms explores Packer's legacy and profound insights into prayer, Bible study, the sovereignty of God, the Christian's fight against sin, and more, offering readers the chance to learn from a true evangelical titan.

Endorsements (${ productEndorsements.length })
“The most noteworthy feature of this book is the authors ability to assimilate vast quantities of data, condense it, and put it into a systematic format. This begins with a wonderful biographical chapter and then proceeds to Packers theology. A brief version of the systematic theology that Packer has long promised the world, this book is a triumph of scholarship.”
Leland Ryken
Emeritus Professor of English, Wheaton College
“This is one of the best books on J. I. Packer I have read. It gets to the heart of this great theologians central concern, what Henry Scougal called the life of God in the soul of man. For those of us who have sat at Packers feet for many years, this is a delightful reprise and refresher. For new Christians just getting to know Packer, fasten your seat belts!”
Timothy George
Founding Dean, Beeson Divinity School; General Editor, Reformation Commentary on Scripture
“The writings of J. I. Packer have been a great help to many believers in many ways. It is therefore most welcome that Sam Storms has synthesized insights from those writings in this helpful, accessible book. Im sure Pastor Storms agrees that the very best thing about his book would be if it encouraged readers to dive into Packers works themselves.”
