Rediscovering the Unchanging God: Jack Mooring’s ‘Portrait of God’ Offers a Guiding Light in Turbulent Time

In an ever changing world marked by uncertainty and chaos, finding stability in one’s faith can be a daunting task. Author Jack Mooring knows this struggle intimately, and his new book, “Portrait of God: Rediscovering the Attributes of God through the Stories of His People”, is a powerful response. By delving into the lives of influential Christian figures like C.S. Lewis and St. Augustine, Mooring uncovers timeless reminders of God’s unchanging truths, providing a guiding light for modern-day believers navigating the ups and downs of their faith journey.

Through “Portrait of God”, Mooring invites readers to rediscover their wonder about God’s character, using the stories of faithful men and women throughout history to illuminate the attributes of God. With thought-provoking questions and further readings, this book serves as a guidebook for those seeking a deeper understanding of God’s nature. As Mooring writes, “I’ve learned that the Christian life is less about learning and more about remembering…This book is an attempt to rediscover our wonder about who He is.” By joining Mooring on this journey, readers can find stability in their faith and a renewed sense of awe for the unchanging God.

Each chapter explores an attribute of God through a person in church history who radically experienced His nature, applying it as a brushstroke to our portrait.
