So why did I write a book about God? What is the purpose of seeking out the divine heartbeat?
The world is filled with God-talk. People talk about God. Some speak for God. Increasing numbers argue against God. A friend of mine says that atheism has become anti-theism. He means that there is increasingly a militant voice against God.
All that drives me to find his essence. As I started writing I did not want to study his names. I wanted to move beyond apologetics. Just listing his attributes was not enough. There had to be more than what all the theologians had said about him. All of those are good and proper, but I wanted to probe his heart.
The more we comprehend his core being, the better we understand who he is and the more accurately we can speak about him to others.
What do you think is the heart of God?
