We've been taught that the fear of the Lord just means reverence, just means respect. That definition isn't wrong. It's just not enough. In Fear & Awe, pastor Jared Montana takes readers through the full weight of what it means to fear God rightly, holiness that consumes, judgment that swallows whole, a power vast enough to raise the dead and gentle enough to draw near to the brokenhearted. Chapter by chapter, he unpacks a different facet of who God is: His presence, His anger, His sovereignty, His faithfulness, His goodness, His miraculous power, and, finally, His nearness. This is not a book that shrinks God down to make Him easier to hold. It lets Him be exactly who He says He is: terrifying and good, just and merciful, a consuming fire and a Father who draws near to those who draw near to Him. Because rightly understood, the fear of the Lord was never meant to push you away. It's the very thing that pulls you closer to Him than you've ever been. If you've ever wondered how the God who commands you to fear Him can also be called love, this book was written for you.
