I picked this one up, probably, b/c it was short and I'd never read anything by Tozer. I'd heard, when I was young and impressionable, that he was on the "mystical" side of things, and that, at first, scared me and, later, intriguied me. Tozer describes relationship w/ God in nontraditional terms, which could be mystical or could just be refreshingly innovative. His language transcends the ordinary and ventures into philosophy and even physics. "There must be somewhere a fixed center," he writes, "against which everything else is measured, where the law of relativity does not enter and we can say ‘IS’ and make no allowances,” (100). And in God, Tozer finds it: "Everyone and everything else measures from that fixed point [of God:]. ‘I am that I am,’ says God, ‘I change not’" (ibid). I like that: God as Fixed Point. A very nice antidote to the rampant relativity of 21st C. life.
