Forty Days on the Mountain: Meditations on Knowing God (Ebook)

By Stephen E. Smallman

... Show All

When considering what it means to know God, many Christians instinctively turn to the life of Moses. Moses was a man who knew God in a deeply personal way, and the book of Exodus is a good place to start for anyone yearning to know God better. Forty Days on the Mountain is a collection of meditations on how God revealed himself to Moses and how Moses responded and related to Almighty God.

These readings are brief but profound and can be read in forty consecutive days or spread out to allow more time for reflection. Each reading is more than a casual "thought for the day"; each is one component in this close examination of what it is to know God. Themes include the necessity of obeying God, the ugliness of sin, the power of bold intercessory prayer, and God's eternal glory.

Philip Graham Ryken, President, Wheaton College

"Steve Smallman invites us in these daily devotions to follow Moses in his passion to press on to know the presence of God. I was greatly blessed by Steve's challenge."
Rose Marie Miller, missionary; author, From Fear to Freedom

"In a hurried and cacophonous world, Steve's gentle and wise insights, framed by Scripture reading, hymns, and prayers, will help readers grow in the knowledge of God, pointing in every meditation from Moses and his experience on the mountain to the Lord Jesus Christ."
Michael B. Kelly, Assistant Professor of Old Testament, Westminster Theological Seminary

"This book is just what one expects from a seasoned pastor who has a heart for providing edifying nourishment for the soul. What is particularly refreshing is a view of God's grace often overlooked in God's dealing with Moses on the mountain."
