God's Character & Personality - Part 1
Stuart McAlpine - Who is God? What is God like? Our understanding of God shapes not only our faith, but our entire approach to life, our values and priorities. Unfortunately, many have a distorted view of God and this has led to many of the problems that we have in society, the church, and our personal lives. Rather than getting to know the loving and holy God revealed in the Scriptures, false notions of God have infiltrated our thinking from other religions, philosophy, media, and family traditions. These incorrect views of God hinder us from fully surrendering ourselves to him and being as effective in sharing his love with others. The intent of this study is to help us recover a biblical understanding of the character and personality of God so that we can love, trust and serve him in a more faithful, fruitful, and fulfilling way.
