The Presence of a Hidden God

Evidence for the God of the Bible

Dr. D. James Kennedy

About The Presence of a Hidden God

D. James Kennedy, PhD, was for decades one of the most trusted and gifted leaders of the Christian faith. And now with The Presence of a Hidden God, the book he completed shortly before his passing, he offers you one more opportunity to know and love the God whom Dr. Kennedy served so courageously.

With powerful biblical exposition, clarity of thought, and fascinating examples from history and life, Dr. Kennedy and Jerry Newcombe guide you into a fuller clearer knowledge of almighty God. They reveal that, first and foremost, God is found in Jesus Christ: “No one knows the Father except the Son and anyone to whom the Son chooses to reveal him” (Matthew 11:27, esv). But we must not be passive if we want a relationship with God. The Bible tells us that God can be found through faith, repentance, prayer, Bible reading and study, meditation, giving,
and sharing our faith. In this book, Dr. Kennedy expounds brilliantly on these truths.

Join in this life-changing journey of discovery, and see that God is not hidden after all, but is present with you…now and forever.

Praise

"This book demonstrates the rational coherence of the Christian faith. Atheism, which is supposedly based on reason, is shown to be inherently irrational. Only Christianity meets both the intellectual and intuitive longings of the human soul. Yes, the hidden God is present among us.”
–Dr. Erwin W. Lutzer, senior pastor of the Moody Church, Chicago, IL, and author of Christ Among Other Gods and Slandering Jesus

“There are only two ways that we can know something: rational thought or revelation. When it comes to knowing God, history shows the first option is untrustworthy, as countless rational thinkers have asserted views of various gods that are either contradictory or irreconcilable. That leaves us with revelation, where God Himself chooses to reveal things hidden to our finite minds. This is the persuasive case made by D. James Kennedy and Jerry Newcombe in their excellent work The Presence of a Hidden God. With compelling narrative and excellent scholarship, they detail a revelation of God that is both awe inspiring and trustworthy. If you desire to make God known to those for whom He remains hidden, this is the book for you.”
–Frank Wright, Ph.D., president and CEO of National Religious Broadcasters

The Presence of a Hidden God is a must-read and must-give-to-everyone book. It is the best book published in many years that presents the truth of God and Jesus Christ to unbelievers. The book takes off with insight and memorable stories that capture both mind and heart. I will quote The Presence of a Hidden God for years to come. I was moved to tears several times. I laughed out loud. This is the great evangelist Dr. D. James Kennedy’s magnum opus due to the superb coauthoring of Jerry Newcombe. My suggestion is read it and be transformed!”
–Ted Baehr, chairman of Christian Film & Television Commission and publisher of MovieGuide

“This, the final Kennedy-Newcombe book after twelve others, is probably their finest. It serves as a fitting capstone for Dr. Kennedy’s extraordinary ministry, taking on the greatest theme that ever could be–God Himself–and with brilliant logic and shimmering illustrations proves not only His existence but how very threadbare are the arguments of today’s resurgent atheists. But more, these pages also answer questions even the faithful may ask: Why does God seem hidden at times? Why does He permit evil? This book, defying the detractors and firming up the faithful, should be required reading to meet the challenges facing today’s Christian.”
–Paul L. Maier, professor of history, Western Michigan University, and best-selling author
