Book excerpt: The traces of God can be found in the most unexpected places--an Atlanta slum, a pod of whales off the coast of Alaska, the prisons of Peru and Chile, the plays of Shakespeare, a health club in Chicago--yet many Christians have not only missed seeing God, they’ve overlooked opportunities to make him visible to those most in need of hope. In this enlightening book author Philip Yancey serves as an insightful tour guide for those willing to look beyond the obvious, pointing out glimpses of the eternal where few might think to look. Whether finding God among the newspaper headlines, within the church, or on the job, Yancey delves deeply into the commonplace and surfaces with rich spiritual insight.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: God is alive with wonder, a soul-filling conflagration of improbable truth. He loves us as He detonates our spiritual assumptions, turning our religious worlds upside down. In The God We Do Not Know, we will attempt to gain insight into a God who demolishes us, it seems, at every turn. He possesses mind-bending intelligence, creativity, power, and love. Therefore, if we truly want to know Him, His truths will inevitably lead us into rough, unpredictable--but wondrous--terrain. We must investigate these truths; be stormed, shattered, and swept away, in love, by them. At times this journey is spiny and steep but, in every case, brimming with joy, with compassion, with wonder.
