“Just as he did in his outstanding Identity and Attributes of God, Terry Johnson takes us on a sacred tour of God’s character through the Scriptures and the writings of the Puritans. The Excellencies of God is a volume to be treasured by pastors and laypersons. The style is accessible and warm, even as the content is deep and worthy of patient meditation. Once again, Johnson helps us to see that there is nothing more practical for the Christian than the study of the Divine. There is nothing more comforting in our sorrows or humbling to our pride than knowledge of God as He truly is. The Excellencies of God is theology for the church. It is doctrine in service to doxology and devotion. I cannot think of a subject more worthy of the Christian’s attention. This volume has my highest recommendation.” Todd Pruitt, pastor, Covenant Presbyterian Church, Harrisonburg, Virginia
