Get to know God As the deer pants for the water brooks, so pants my soul for You, O God. --Psalm 42:1 Does this describe you? Has your thirst for more intimate contact with God caused you to reach for anything and everything that will bring you closer to Him? Do you want to know Him as a friend, like Moses did, or capture His heart, like David did? In The Anatomy of God, you'll learn that God is not hiding from you. In fact, the Creator of all things desires more than anything to be seen, touched, and known by you God is a Spirit, yet throughout Scripture, He describes Himself in anatomical terms and images we are familiar with. His eyes wink and squint. His mouth whispers, His smile radiates, and He inclines an attentive ear to our cries. God has hands, arms, and fingers that build, shape, give, protect, and deliver. His heart can be broken, and His nostrils flare when He is angry. His face reveals His glory and His favor. The Anatomy of God is an invitation to see God at work in us, for us, and through us. With appropriate humor and humility, Dr. Kenneth Ulmer introduces us to the Father as we seldom see Him--touchable, emotional, and accessible. Ulmer navigates the seemingly unfathomable depths of the person of God with a pastor's care, a teacher's skill, and a preacher's passion, guiding us into deeper, more meaningful communion. This book is for every man or woman who desires to know God or to know Him better. It is for anyone who questions God's closeness or doubts His concern. The Anatomy of God brings us closer to God by bringing God closer to us.
Bishop Ulmer presents a powerful picture of who our Father really is and just how much He really loves us. New members classes everywhere should have this book on their list of required readings. Seasoned believers are not left out because Bishop Ulmer's presentation will shed new light on our relationship with Him. This book is Awesome!!!!

.In a nutshell - it's REAL! I was expecting a lofty book on theology but found instead a real-world understanding of how I can know God for who He really is. Dr. Ulmer has a definite passion and love for the Word of God and presents it with honesty, humor and humility that is easily understood and appreciated. I loved it, but more importantly, I learned from it !A definite read for those who have enjoyed books like "The Prayer of Jabez" (Wilkinson) or "The Attributes of God" (Tozer).
