“Packer’s best known book is Knowing God. [...]
According to Packer, studying the nature and character of God isn’t, as many Christians suppose, abstract and theoretical, but, instead, the most practical project we can undertake. This knowledge is crucial to living as a Christian.
In fact, attempting to live the Christian life without this knowledge isn’t only foolish, it’s a kind of self-cruelty-denying ourselves the riches of our own faith.”
