“The devil goes about as a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour.” 1 Peter 5:8
A.W. Tozer (1897–1963) has been one of the great influences on my life since I was a new believer, as a teenager. I fed on Tozer as a young Christian, and still today God speaks to me through his writing.
A.W. Tozer was one of the writers (along with C.S. Lewis and Francis Schaeffer) who had the most profound impact on me as a young Christian, and he continues to do so. I appreciated this reminder from him that pride is delusional. And it’s never in our best interests.

A. W. Tozer is one of my all-time favorite authors. In The Pursuit of God, Tozer writes this:
As the sailor locates his position on the sea by “shooting” the sun, so we may get our moral bearings by looking at God.
