J.I. Packer
In this talk, J.I. Packer reflects on his classic Knowing God (1973), originally developed from a series of articles. He emphasizes its central message: knowing God is not mere knowledge but a personal relationship of trust, response, and vulnerability.
J.I. Packer invites his listeners beyond head knowledge to a living relationship with God. Exploring God’s character—His love, wisdom, justice, and grace—Packer shows how true knowledge of God transforms life into worship, trust, and obedience.
