Attributes of God for beginners

God Is: A Devotional Guide to the Attributes of God by Mark Jones
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Most wouldn't think of a book on the attributes of God as devotional reading, but pastor Mark Jones accomplishes that task. He writes in a style that is clear and pointed. He takes the attributes of God one by one, describes the doctrine involved with that attribute, explains how it is revealed to us in the incarnate Christ, and finally demonstrates how it applies to Christians individually. It isn't a "soft" devotional, by that I mean it isn't one that makes you feel warm and good about yourself, and I appreciate that. Some of these teachings will clash with our sensibilities, but they are taken from Scripture so when that happens, it's because our sensibilities need correction.
