Living as a Christian: Teachings From First Peter - eBook

Write a Review | Q & A

Many modern Christians are familiar with the name, and perhaps even some of the writings of, A. W. Tozer, but few living today were blessed to sit under his weekly teaching from the pulpit. In this never-before published collection of teachings on 1 Peter, adapted from sermons given to his parishioners, Tozer examines what it means to call oneself a "Christian." In his view, to be a recipient of God’s salvation is to become "the pride of all heaven," indestructible and able to withstand anything and everything that seeks to undermine one’s faith. The epistle of 1 Peter was written to a group of just such Christians, to encourage them to live in the center of God’s redeeming love. Through Tozer’s incomparable teaching and commentary, this ancient letter becomes a fresh and life-infusing admonition for today’s Christian!

A. W. TOZER began his lifelong pursuit of God at the age of 17 after hearing a street preacher in Akron, Ohio. A self-taught theologian, Tozer was a pastor, writer and editor whose powerful use of words continues to grip the intellect and stir the soul of today’s believer. He authored more than 40 books, and The Pursuit of God and The Knowledge of the Holy are considered modern devotional classics.
