The renowned pastor and author A.W. Tozer once said, "What comes into our minds when we think about God is the most important thing to us... the most portentous fact about any man is not what he at a given time may say or do, but what he in his heart conceives God to be like." Our image of God shapes everything about us. It informs everything about who we are and who we are becoming. In Seeing God as a Perfect Father, bestselling author and pastor Louie Giglio challenges each of us to consider our perceptions and thoughts about God. When we think about him, do we imagine a ruler who demands absolute loyalty from us? Or a coach who expects us to perform up to his high expectations? Or even a virtual assistant who is always there to help us when every other option is exhausted? Louie invites us to consider God in a different way: as a perfect Father who wants us to live under the waterfall of his blessing. He points us to a God who is not absent or ambivalent, but available and affectionate, ready to shower us with his approval and love. He challenges us to consider: • How the way that we are seeing God is influencing what we feel about his character • How our perceptions of God's perfection is creating misperceptions of his care for us • How our relationship with our earthly father is creating distance in our relationship with him • How our lives would be different if we truly were able to see God as a perfect father When we take hold of the truth that our God has spanned heaven and earth to reach us, we will no longer be defined by our past but by the love of a perfect Father. Learn how God wants us to experience his unique, unconditional love and to live in the freedom, abundance, and blessing He freely gives. This study guide has everything you need for a full Bible study experience, including: • The study guide itself-with discussion and reflection questions, video notes, and a leader's guide.
