Elephant God
Have you ever felt like your understanding of God is incomplete? Like you’re holding just one piece of an infinitely complex puzzle?
You might see God as a loving Father but struggle with the idea of a consuming fire. You might embrace Jesus as a gentle Shepherd but feel uneasy with the image of a sacrificial Lamb.
We often cling to the parts of God we find most comfortable, leaving us with a fragmented, and sometimes contradictory, faith. This limited view can leave our relationship with Him feeling shallow, confusing, or distant.
In Elephant God, author Peter DeHaan, masterfully uses the ancient fable of the six blind men and the elephant to illuminate this very challenge. Just as each man touched only one part of the elephant—envisioning a wall, a spear, a snake—and believed he knew the whole, we too can limit God by our partial experiences.
This transformative book invites you to step back and grasp the whole elephant. Journey through more than thirty powerful, biblical metaphors that reveal the multifaceted character of God—as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. You will explore God as a Potter, an Eagle, and a Refuge; Jesus as a Hen, a Bridegroom, and a Cornerstone; and the Holy Spirit as Wind, Fire, and an Advocate.
Stop settling for a black-and-white snapshot of a God who is brilliantly multi-colored. By assembling these biblical puzzle pieces, you will replace your partial view with a breathtaking, holistic portrait of the Almighty.
Your awe will deepen, your worship will be enriched, and your personal relationship with God will become more vibrant and resilient than ever before. Perfect for personal devotion, small groups, and Sunday school classes. Elephant God is your guide to moving beyond an incomplete view of God and into a fuller, more profound faith.
Don’t just settle for one piece of the puzzle.
