Advance Praise
"The book before you will lift your eyes to the skies, expand your mind, and refill your spirit with a new sense of the grandeur and awesome character of God. When a friend recommended to me a few years ago that I watch the Louie Giglio video Indescribable, I smiled and thanked the well-meaning advocate, but I had little intention of actually watching it. Knowing that I am an astronomer myself, bot a scientist and a follower of Jesus, my friend felt sure that I would be enamored with a presentation by a pastor that incorporated incredible discoveries of astronomy. But I had encountered quite a few disappointing religious presentations-books, films, sermons, and articles-in which the audience is left either with erroneous scientific claims, a sense that mainstream science is a foe of biblical faith, or both. How delighted I was to experience instead a passionate presentation of the awesomeness of god, exemplified by the incomprehensible magnitude and dynamic activity of the universe itself and elucidated with the latest scientific understanding.
Now in this book of the same name, Louie Giglio and Matt Redman build on the theme by sharing powerful observations of how the heavens have infused their own relationships with God with a sense of awe and joy ... may the thoughts shared in this book help you make connections between the God of an awesome universe and the love He has for you and this tiny, beautiful planet."
