Scripture records a number of instances in which God visibly revealed himself to his people, offering a glimpse of his stunning beauty and overwhelming glory. These awe-inspiring manifestations of God's presence--known as "theophanies"--give us wonderful insights into his character, will, and salvation.

In this collection of biblical expositions, eight prominent Bible teachers explore key passages in which God displayed himself in a spectacular revelation:

• Tim Keller - On the Mountain (Exodus 19)
• Paige Brown - In the temple (1 Kings 8)
• John Piper - In the Throne Room (Isaiah 6)
• Carrie Sandom - From a Miry Swamp (Psalm 40)
• Nancy Leigh DeMoss - On Another Mountain (Matthew 17:1-15)
• Jenny Salt - In the Third Heaven (2 Corinthians 12)
• Kathleen Nielson - Through the Open Door (Revelation 4-5)
• D. A. Carson - Home at Last (Revelation 21-22)

From the giving of the law at Mt. Sinai to Christ's glorious transfiguration, the passages examined in this book challenge us to look afresh at our God--that we might truly know, love, and serve him.
