An Island of Truth in a Sea of Schlock Christianity
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
This book is classic Tozer, and one of his best! As a very orthodox in worship Presbyterian, I particularly like the way Tozer comments on how "The Great God Entertainment" has infiltrated our churches and has taken hold on "the retarded saints of today". Yet this book was written in 1955! Tozer is an island of Truth in today's wishy-washy sea of dumbed down, "smiley face" Modern Evangelicalism and the Church Growth Movement. It's too bad American Protestantism hasn't heeded Tozer's warning.
Another Treasury of Tozer Teachings
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 21 years ago
Tozer speaks the truth of God plainly, simply, and powerfully. This book is a delight of bite-sized teachings by the master.Tozer's deep love for God saturates each sentence. "[God] is all love, and those who trust Him need never know anything but that love." and "[God] is not hard to please, though He may be hard to satisfy."But Tozer is no softy...he challenges, exhorts, and convicts skillfully using the sword of the Spirit. "Many a solo is sung to show off; many a sermon is preached as an exhibition of talent; many a church is founded as a slap at ome other church." and "Lacking love, prophets, teachers, orators, philanthropists and martyrs are sent away without reward."Thanks, Tozer. I needed all the observations that you have leanred and written.
An excellent compilation of short essays!

This book has several short essays on Christian life, most of which impressed deeply upon me - Tozer's exhortations drive you deeper into relationship with God and are immensely encouraging and challenging at the same time.
