Product Description

Finally Understand Who God Really Is Through 32 Life-Changing Biblical Metaphors

Are you struggling to connect with God? Do you sense there's more to your faith than you're experiencing? Elephant God will revolutionize how you understand and relate to the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

The Ancient Fable That Changes Everything

Remember the story of six blind men examining an elephant? One touches the side and says it's a wall. Another grabs the trunk and insists it's a snake. Each man is correct-yet completely wrong about the whole elephant.

This is exactly how we often approach God. We grasp one aspect of His character and miss the magnificent whole.

Discover the Complete Picture

Peter DeHaan guides you through 32 biblical metaphors that illuminate God's character:

FATHER GOD: The Gardener who prunes us, the Potter who shapes us, the Eagle who catches us when we fall, our Refuge and Rock

JESUS THE SON: The Good Shepherd, the Gate, the Lamb, our Great Physician, the Bridegroom, the Cornerstone, the Way, the Truth, and the Life

THE HOLY SPIRIT: Our Advocate who intercedes, the Fire that refines, the Wind that moves, the Dove bringing peace

PLUS: Explore how God is our Creator, Lord, Judge, Consuming Fire, Master, and Friend.

Perfect For:

✓ Individual Bible study and spiritual growth

✓ Small groups seeking meaningful discussion

✓ Sunday School classes exploring God's character

✓ Anyone feeling distant from God

✓ Spiritual seekers wanting to know God better

✓ Believers ready to deepen their relationship with God

What Makes This Book Different:

Elephant God combines clear, accessible explanations with thought-provoking reflection questions, real-life applications, and fresh perspectives on familiar Scripture passages. Each chapter invites you to embrace both mystery and clarity in your faith journey.

From the Author of the Popular 40-Day Bible Study Series

Peter DeHaan has helped thousands explore Scripture with fresh eyes. As a lifelong student of the Bible and popular Christian blogger, Peter writes with authenticity, depth, and a willingness to ask tough questions.

What Readers Are Discovering:

Readers report feeling closer to God, understanding Scripture more deeply, and experiencing renewed passion for their faith. The book's unique approach-combining the elephant fable with biblical metaphors-creates "aha moments" that stick.

Don't Settle for Partial Understanding

Like connecting pieces of a puzzle, each metaphor reveals more of God's magnificent character. The six blind men's conclusions about the elephant were laughably inadequate. Our partial understanding of God is equally incomplete. It's time to see the bigger picture.

Whether you're a longtime believer ready to go deeper, someone questioning your childhood faith, a spiritual seeker exploring Christianity, or a small group leader looking for meaningful content, Elephant God will meet you where you are and lead you into a richer understanding.
