How can I know God?
Deep in each of our hearts, there is something that stirs in us that points us to the spiritual side of life. A historical Christian leader once said, “We will not be at rest until we find our rest in God.” But how do we come to know God? Where do we start? Down through history, God has taken the initiative to reveal Himself to us. He then carefully guided those who had come to know Him to record the events of their lives. But the clearest way that God has made Himself known to us is when He sent His one and only Son, the Lord Jesus Christ, into the world 2000 years ago… “No one has ever seen God at any time; the only unique Son, the only begotten God, who is in the intimate presence of the Father, He has declared Him — He has interpreted Him and He has made Him known” - John 1:18 Amplified Bible. God ensured that all these events and the life of Christ would be written down for us and put into the Bible that we have today – over 2500 years of history recorded by more than 40 eye witnesses. If you want to know God, or want to find out more about Him, let me encourage you to begin reading the Bible, asking God to reveal Himself to you as you read, as He did to the people you read about on its pages. There are 66 books in the Bible. I’ve given you an ordered list on back where I would recommend that you begin reading. Two suggestions: First, think about and focus on what you do understand as you read. Don’t worry about what you don’t understand at first…that will come later. Secondly, if you come across a long genealogy or list of some type, skip or skim over them quickly at first…those, too, will fall into place later. Knowing God personally has been the greatest adventure of my life. I am experiencing day-by-day what one writer said in the Bible... “For in Him (the Lord Jesus Christ) the whole fullness of deity (God) dwells bodily, and you have come to fullness of life in Him, who is the Head of all rule and authority”- Colossians 2:9-10. May you come to experience the joy of intimately knowing God, our Creator and Sustainer and Savior, the One who loves us deeply and wants us to share all of who He is. Dennis Williams

How can I know God?
Deep in each of our hearts, there is something that stirs in us that points us to the spiritual side of life. A historical Christian leader once said, “We will not be at rest until we find our rest in God.” But how do we come to know God? Where do we start? Down through history, God has taken the initiative to reveal Himself to us. He then carefully guided those who had come to know Him to record the events of their lives. But the clearest way that God has made Himself known to us is when He sent His one and only Son, the Lord Jesus Christ, into the world 2000 years ago… “No one has ever seen God at any time; the only unique Son, the only begotten God, who is in the intimate presence of the Father, He has declared Him — He has interpreted Him and He has made Him known” - John 1:18 Amplified Bible. God ensured that all these events and the life of Christ would be written down for us and put into the Bible that we have today – over 2500 years of history recorded by more than 40 eye witnesses. If you want to know God, or want to find out more about Him, let me encourage you to begin reading the Bible, asking God to reveal Himself to you as you read, as He did to the people you read about on its pages. There are 66 books in the Bible. I’ve given you an ordered list on back where I would recommend that you begin reading. Two suggestions: First, think about and focus on what you do understand as you read. Don’t worry about what you don’t understand at first…that will come later. Secondly, if you come across a long genealogy or list of some type, skip or skim over them quickly at first…those, too, will fall into place later. Knowing God personally has been the greatest adventure of my life. I am experiencing day-by-day what one writer said in the Bible... “For in Him (the Lord Jesus Christ) the whole fullness of deity (God) dwells bodily, and you have come to fullness of life in Him, who is the Head of all rule and authority”- Colossians 2:9-10. May you come to experience the joy of intimately knowing God, our Creator and Sustainer and Savior, the One who loves us deeply and wants us to share all of who He is. Dennis Williams
