Here Is Our God: God's Revelation of Himself in Scripture (Gospel Coalition)

Scripture records a number of instances in which God visibly revealed himself to his people, offering a glimpse of his stunning beauty and overwhelming glory. These awe-inspiring manifestations of God’s presence—known as “theophanies”—give us wonderful insights into his character, will, and salvation.

In this collection of biblical expositions, eight prominent Bible teachers explore key passages in which God displayed himself in a spectacular revelation:

• Tim Keller – On the Mountain: The Terrifying and Beckoning God (Exodus 19)
• Paige Brown – In the Temple (1 Kings 8)
• John Piper – In the Throne Room (Isaiah 6)
• Carrie Sandom – From a Miry Swamp (Psalm 40)
• Nancy Leigh Demoss – On Another Mountain (Matthew 17:1–15)
• Jenny Salt – In the Third Heaven (2 Corinthians 12)
• Kathleen Nielson – Through the Open Door (Revelation 4–5)
• D. A. Carson – Home at Last (Revelation 21–22)

From the giving of the law at Mt. Sinai to Christ’s glorious transfiguration, the passages examined in this book challenge us to look afresh at our God—that we might truly know, love, and serve him.
