ENDORSEMENTS FOR THE SERMONS OF BEHOLD YOUR GOD: RETHINKING GOD BIBLICALLY
In the Gospel of Mark, we are confronted by "a woman who had a hemorrhage for twelve years and endured much at the hands of many physicians, and had spent all that she had and was not helped at all, but rather had grown worse" (Mark 5:25-26). It was only in reaching out to Christ that she was healed. The physical malady of this woman powerfully illustrates the spiritual condition of so many sincere believers today. They lament their spiritual anemia and spend themselves on the countless topical treatments that are being peddled by so many modern-day spiritual physicians. In the end, their malady remains, and they grow more hopeless and embittered with every failed attempt. If you find yourself imprisoned in this endless cycle, I highly recommend this work. In these pages, Dr. John Snyder lovingly and patiently calls the church back to the only true source of hope, joy, and power — Beholding God in the clear light of Scripture. Here you will not find a quick fix, but you will find a faithful and potent remedy for the weary soul.
— Paul Washer
We need God. More precisely, we need to see and know God. Above all things, we need to experience His presence as we behold His beauty. If we could just see a bit of His glory, it would change everything about us. The more we see God, the more our thoughts, affections, and pursuits are transformed. Yet, because we have such a small view of God, we have such small desires for God. We, so often, find ourselves more interested in the gifts of God than in God Himself. This is why I am so thankful for this excellent book, Behold Your God, by John Snyder. The highest commendation I can give this book is that it has deepened my own desire to know God by giving me a greater sense of His majesty. I believe those who love God will love this book.
“We certainly cannot read too much about or meditate too much on God’s glory. After all, that’s the purpose for which we are here on earth. Adapted for readability, this book contains a dozen of John Snyder’s sermons drawn from the much-used Behold Your God study. May God bless it to many readers for their salvation and many Christians to assist us in recalibrating our busy lives to focus more on and bow more submissively and worshipfully before our great and big and glory-worthy God.” — Dr. Joel R. Beeke, President, Puritan Reformed Theological Seminary, Grand Rapids, Michigan
ENDORSEMENTS FOR THE SERMONS OF BEHOLD YOUR GOD: THE WEIGHT OF MAJESTY
There need be no tension between doctrinal clarity and profundity, experimental vitality, and pastoral intimacy and sensitivity. All these qualities are happily blended in this collection of sermons. Sensitively edited to retain their pulpit liveliness and forcefulness, loaded with Scripture and laced with the wisdom of past generations of saints, these addresses bring the living and true God before the eye of the heart. Read with care and received with humility, they will bring you to God, to consider him as he makes himself known to us in all the weight of his majesty.

These twelve sermons beautifully reflect the theme they seek to expound, the surpassing greatness of God. The sermons address what is surely the church’s greatest need today, to behold more clearly and deeply the greatness and glory of God. The first sermon addresses what Herman Bavinck maintained was the fundamental truth of the Christian religion, the incomprehensibility of God. From this exalted starting point, John Snyder explores the riches of God’s self revelation in Holy Scripture. The Introduction alone is worth the price of the book. Read. Ponder. Wonder. Praise. A book every serious Christian should want to read.
