What do you think about when you think about God? A.W. Tozer makes this powerful claim:

We tend by a secret law of the soul to move toward our mental image of God. So what comes to mind when we think about God is the most important thing about us.
— A.W. Tozer, The Pursuit of God

We can no longer, in this present day and age, merely assume that the word “god” means the same thing to everyone, not even among those who identify with the Christian church. The word “god” conjures up all types of different images of “god” for different people. So, part of growing as a Christian, as a follower of Jesus, means challenging our assumptions and expectations about who God is, and disciplining our minds to comprehend God as he has revealed himself to us. The purpose of our I AM series is to take a deep dive into how exactly God describes himself to us, and how that changes our relationship with him, with Jesus, with the world, and how that changes our minds, our hearts, our attitudes, our pursuits, and indeed the very core of who we are.
