When A. W. Tozer was a young preacher newly ordained into the ministry, he wrote a prayer that he published 30 years later under the title "The Prayer of a Minor Prophet." Fifty years after his death, Dr. Tozer's prophetic writings and sermons continue to deliver God's Word to His people.

A. W. Tozer derived great personal satisfaction and help from the church creeds, and he used them as he preached and taught. This new book draws on four previously published essays and several articles that have never before been published in books.

A Disruptive Faith is A. W. Tozer's teaching on what he termed "faith that perturbs"—faith that contradicts the unbelieving man and threatens the complacency of the Christian.

Listeners will learn to be content with this faith-inspired discontent and to experience a fresh hope for eternity with God.

It used to be that Christians conceived of the world as a battleground. They believed in sin and the devil and hell as constituting one force and in God and righteousness and heaven constituting the other. How different it is today. People think of the world not as a battleground but as a playground. In This World: Playground or Battleground?, Tozer calls us to see the real world of the spiritual realm that lies beyond the physical that so ensnares us. The audio is short and to the point, abrupt but full of vigor, profound, and downright relevant today.

Spend a year unearthing the wonder of the Holy Spirit alongside A. W. Tozer. Tozer was a man who thirsted for the Spirit of God, who prayed often and shunned distraction so that he might drink him in more steadily. In these daily meditations on scripture, Tozer will inspire you to do the same. According to Tozer, the Spirit is neglected by the modern church. But when believers know the Spirit - intimately and accurately - they experience freedom from stagnancy.

Delighting in God is the message Tozer intended to be the follow-up to The Knowledge of the Holy. He demonstrates how the attributes of God - those things God has revealed about himself - are a way to understand the Christian life of worship and service. We are here to serve and adore him, but we can fulfill that role only by acknowledging who he is, which is the essence of the Christian life and the source of all our fulfillment, joy, and comfort.

Tozer's audiences did appreciate what he had to say, and he was probably the most widely read Christian writer of his time.

Although most were written more than three decades ago, the insights they offer are as fresh and thought-provoking as the day they were published.

Just as in our day, people under the teaching ministry of A. W. Tozer wondered about the end times. How should we read the book of Revelation? What does it mean for how believers live? In this book, today's Christians can learn from one of the twentieth-century church's most profound thinkers and pastors.

Prayer combines the best of Tozer on prayer into one volume. Tozer was captured by the great wonder of God, and he regarded prayer as the primary means of coming into his presence. But if our everyday life is filled with the barrenness of busyness and there is no serious urgency to pray, we forfeit the wonder of being conformed to the image of Christ and knowing our God more intimately - the true Christian life.

The devil is real, and his strategies are hidden in plain sight.

Tozer offers piercing insight and practical application to help you make God-honoring, life-giving decisions in a culture that prizes what is evil.

When the Holy Spirit is confined to creeds, the church becomes like a land with no water or a kite with no wind. In his life and writings, A.W.
