The Size of the Soul

The Size of the Soul is a compilation of principles on revival
and spiritual growth by A.W. Tozer.  How can we ignore the will of God and
still expect His guidance in our lives? The truth is that we cannot. Tozer warns
the unbeliever who claims a faith in the Lord to examine his life and to seek out
the hypocrisy in his ways. This book offers up a stark reminder that Christianity
today is made up of too many words and not enough action. 

Tozer puts
forth a theological pathway for the track of the ambitious evangelical Christian.
He clarifies many of the doctrinal shortcomings that have clouded our churches and
Sunday school classrooms over the years. Christ s sacrifice was once and for all,
and as A. W. Tozer argues, it is our sin that keeps us from a fruitful relationship
with God.  The Christian life is a journey, a growth that is to be attained
over the course of a lifetime. Too often churchgoers grow older without growing
holier. Tozer sums up his revivalist mentality: Let a man approach the burning bush
of divine truth with the desire to grasp it in his hand and the intensity of the
fire will blind his eyes and cauterize his hands and face to the point of insensibility.
Before the awesome vision of revealed truth, the human intellect should kneel and
hide its face in trembling adoration.
