Product Description

▼▲
God made us to know him

· Encounter God in Genesis 1-2
· See Jesus and the gospel in the creation accounts
· Learn how God created us for communion with him

The book of Genesis brings us back to beginnings. And in the beginning, we meet God. 

In Created for Communion with God, Harrison Perkins explains that the creation account of Genesis 1-2 is primarily about God and his relationship with human beings. These chapters are God's word for God's people, to summon us into communion with him. Perkins's theological reflections reveal God's glory and goodness, highlight the good news of Jesus, and encourage the soul.

Editorial Reviews

▼▲

“With exegetical care, theological rigour, and pastoral concern, Perkins gives his readers an insight into the first two chapters of Genesis which is foundational and formational for the Christian life.”

—Bob Akroyd, Edinburgh Theological Seminary


“This accessible but theologically rich book will open up the meaning of creation and deepen your relationship with the Creator.”

—Craig A. Carter, Tyndale University, Toronto


“Take up and read! You will be blessed and edified by once again walking over these well-trodden paths of Scripture. Additionally, you will have an experienced guide who will lead you faithfully into new insights from God’s word.”

—Bryan D. Estelle, Westminster Seminary California


“This book is accessible to every Christian. It clarifies our created purpose, and it compels us to draw near to God. I encourage you to give this book your attention so that you can see Genesis 1–2 anew, not as written to stir up controversy about creation, but rather communion with our Triune Creator.”

—Chad Vegas, pastor, Sovereign Grace Church, Bakersfield, California


“Created for Communion with God invites readers to rediscover the wonder of God in the creation narrative. Perkins masterfully demonstrates that the book of Genesis was given to draw us into devotion and communion with God. This book is a valuable resource for pastors, seminary students, and congregants alike.”

—Wes Wade, pastor, Grace Bible Fellowship, Brentwood, California
