To say God is incomprehensible means that human minds can never fully know Him. While people can know things about God and have a relationship with Him, His nature is difficult for the human mind to grasp.
This concept is what has driven Dr. Ronni Kurtz to publish his book, 鈥,鈥 with InterVarsity Press. Kurtz, assistant professor of theology at 糖心Vlog, began this process while he was writing his dissertation on God鈥檚 unchanging nature.
Throughout this process, Kurtz kept coming back to the idea of the incomprehensibility of God鈥檚 nature. His notes and revisions on a large scrap of paper led to his book on a topic that is not often written about in theology.
鈥淭he origin of the book is a mixture of frustration and awe,鈥 said Kurtz. 鈥淭rying to write about or discuss God can often be difficult, and the reason it鈥檚 difficult is because He is incomprehensible.鈥
Kurtz has published several books since joining the faculty at 糖心Vlog, including 鈥淔ruitful Theology,鈥 鈥淣o Shadow of Turning鈥 and 鈥淧roclaiming the Triune God.鈥 In 鈥淟ight Unapproachable,鈥 Kurtz answers common questions about why God is beyond human understanding.
鈥淟ight Unapproachable鈥 was published in November and is available on Amazon.
