Who is God?: and Other Foundational Teachings of the Christian Life

In this important book based on a classroom teaching series, Jamie Buckingham draws from his rich theological background, years of personal study and experience, and decades as the pastor of a large congregation to answer six foundational questions that we often take for granted:

• Who is God?

• Who is Jesus?

• Who is the Holy Spirit?

• What is the baptism in the Holy Spirit?

• What is communion?

• What is the church?

With great wisdom, humor, and insight, Jamie provides clear and in-depth answers as he explores what the Bible has to say about each of these core subjects.

For example, who is God? According to Jamie, He is not who most people imagine Him to be. He is not "the big guy upstairs." He's not a bearded old man in the clouds, lightning bolt in hand, ready to punish us at the least provocation. To understand who God is, we must first understand His specific attributes as described in Scripture-and Jamie is a master at breaking these down for us. He gives similar treatment to the questions about Jesus, the Holy Spirit, the baptism in the Holy Spirit, communion, and the church, and touches on many other essential Christian topics along the way.

Do you want a closer walk with God, a deeper relationship with Jesus, and a better understanding of the Holy Spirit's presence and work in your life? Then join the classroom. Allow Jamie to encourage and enlighten you with biblical answers and personal insights into these foundational questions of the Christian faith.
