God In His Own Image

How can a God of love also be a God of wrath?

There’s a lot of confusion today about God’s character. It is all too easy to rely on cheap caricatures rather than rich truth. From the Cosmic Cop to the Benevolent Grandfather, Syd Brestel debunks the common misconceptions about God and shows you a picture of a God who is complex, just, severe, kind, and more worthy of our love than we ever knew.

God in His Own Image explores the tension between what Paul called in Romans “the kindness and severity of God.” Without giving cheap answers or quick solutions, Brestel will have you not only tolerating God’s wrath, but celebrating it along with God’s kindness. If you’ve ever wondered what to do with God’s judgements, are trying to explain God’s wrath to others, or are exploring who God really is, God in His Own Image was written for you.
